Lack of coordination between asynchronous resets and synchronous logic clocks leads to intermittent failures on power up. In this series of articles, we discuss the requirements and challenges of ...

Digital integrated circuits typically use asynchronous set/resets to set the value of memory elements (flip-flops) without depending on any clock pulses. This logic, however, requires special handling ...

Over the recent years post-silicon SoC validation has become a major bottleneck in IC design. Due restricted design cycle time and test bench limitations almost all the designs are taped-out with ...
