We consider optimal designs of partially accelerated life testing which is deviced for parallel systems with the considerably long life time. In partially step-stress life testing, test items are first run simultaneously at use condition for a specified time, and the surviving items are then run at accelerated condition until a predetermined censoring time. In partially constant-stress life testing, test items are run at either use or accelerated condition only until a specified censoring time. The optimal criterion for each test is to minimize either the generalized asymptotic variance of maximum likelihood(ML) estimators of the hazard rates at use condition and the acceleration factors or the asymptotic variance of the ML estimators of the acceleration factors.

A new parallel test algorithm and a built-in self test (BIST) architecture are developed to test various types of functional faults efficiently in content addressable memories (CAMs). In test mode, the read oepratin is replaced by one parallel content addressable search operation and the writing operating is performed parallely with small peripheral circuit modificatins. The results whow that an efficient and practical testing with very low complexity and area overhead can be achieved.

We consider a life testing experiment in which several two-component shared parallel systems are put on test, and the test is terminated at a predesigned experiment time. In this thesis, the maximum likelihood estimators for parameters of Freund's bivariate exponential distribution under the system level life testing are obtained. Results of comparative studies based on Monte Carlo simulation are presented.

본 논문에서는 RAM에서 발생하는 모든 PSF(Pattern Sensitive Fault)를 검사하기 위한알고리즘과 테스트회로를 제안하였다. 기존의 테스트회로와 사용된 알고리즘은 RAM셀들을 연속적으로 테스트하거나 메모리의 2차원적 구조를 사용하지 못했기 때문에 많은 테스트 시간이 소요되었다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 RAM회로에 테스트를 위한 부가적인 회로를 첨가하여 병렬적으로 RAM을 테스트 하는 방법을 제안하였다. 부가적으로 첨가된 회로로는 병렬 비교기와 오류 검출기, 그룹 선택회로 이고 병렬 테스팅 위해서 수정된 디코더를 사용하였다. 또한, 효과적인 테스트 패턴을 구하기 위해 Eulerian경로의 구성방법에 대해서도 연구를 수행하였다. 결과적으로, 본 논문에서 사용한 알고리즘을 사용하면 b x w=n의 매트릭스 형태로 표현되는 RAM을 테스트하는데 325*워드라인 수 만큼의 동작이 필요하게 된다. 구현한 각 회로에 대해서 회로 시뮬레이션을 수행한 후 10 bit*32 word Testable RAM을 설계하였다.

본 논문에서는 CAM에서 발생하는 모든 PSF(Pattern Sensitive Fault)를 검사하기 위한 알고리즘과 테스트회로를 설계하였다. 즉, 짧은 시간에 최소의 부가회로를 이용하여 외부의 장비에 의존하지 않고 테스트하는 내장 테스트회로를 설계하였다. 부가적으로 첨가된 회로로는 병렬비교기와 오류검출기가 있고, 병렬테스팅을 위해서 수정된 디코더를 사용하였다. 또한, 효과적인 테스트패턴을 구하기 위해 Eulerian path의 구성방법에 대해서도 연구를 수행하였다. 결과적으로, 본 논문에서 사용한 알고리즘을 사용하면 워드수에 관계없이 324+2b(b:비트수) 만큼의 동작으로 CAM의 모든 내용을 테스트할 수 있다. 전체 회로중에서 테스트회로가 차지하는 면적은 약 7.5%정도가 된다.

Today's System-on-a-Chip (SoC) is designed with reusable IP cores to meet short time-to-market requirements. However, the increasing cost of testing becomes a big burden in manufacturing a highly integrated SoC. In this paper, an efficient parallel scan test technique is introduced to minimize the test application time. Multiple scan enable signals are adopted to implement scan architecture to achieve optimal test application time for the test patterns scheduled for concurrent scan test. Experimental results show that testing times are considerably reduced with little area overhead.

To handle the density increase of SRAMs, a new parallel testing methodology based on built-in self test (BIST) is developed, which allows to access multiple cells simultaneously. The main idea is that a march algorithm is dperformed concurently in each baisc marching block hwich makes up whole memory cell array. The new parallel access method is very efficient in speed and reuqires a very thny hardware overhead for BIST circuitry. Results show that the fault coverage of the applied march algorithm can be achieved with a lower complexity order. This new paralle testing algorithm tests an .root.n *.root.n SRAM which consists of .root.k * .root.k basic marching blocks in O(5*.root.k*(.root.k+.root.k)) test sequence.

We consider a life testing experiment in which several two component shared parallel system are put on test, and the test is terminated at a specified number of system failures. The bivariate data obtained from such a system level life testing can be classified into three classes: (1) the case of failed two components with known failure times, (2) the case of one censored component and the other failed component of which the failure time might be known or unknown, (3) the case of censored two components. In this thesis, the maximum likelihood estimators of parameters for Block and Basu bivariate exponential distribution under above censoring scheme are obtained. And the results of comparative studies are presented.

This paper presents the optimal redundant actuation of parallel manipulators for complicated robotic applications such as cutting grinding drilling and digging that require a high degree of operational stiffness as well as the balance between force applicability and dexterity. First by taking into account the distribution(number and location) of active joints the statics and the operational stiffness of a redundant parallel manipulator are formulated and the effects of actuation redundancy are analyzed, Second for given task requirements including joint torque limit task force maximum allowable disturbance and maximum allowable deflection the task execution conditions of a redundant parallel manipulator are derived and the efficient testing formulas are provided. Third to achieve high operational stiffness while maintaining moderate dexterity the redundant actuation of a parallel manipulator is optimized which determines the optimal distribution of active joints and the optimal internal joint torque, Finally the simulation results for the optimal redundant actuation of a planar parallel manipulator are given.

System on panel 프레임 버퍼를 위한 메모리 셀 어레이와 주변회로가 설계되었다. 또한, system on panel 공정의 낮은 yield를 극복하기 위해, 블럭 단위의 parallel test 방안이 제안되었다. 기존의 메모리 테스트 보다 빠르게 fault detection이 가능하며, 다양한 embedded memory나 일반 SRAM 테스트 분야에도 적용 가능하다. 또한 기존의 다양한 test vector pattern이 그대로 적용될 수 있어 fault coverage가 높고, 최근의 추세인 hierarchical bit line과 divided word line 구조에도 적용될 수 있다.
