본 논문에서는 ARM922T Core와 주변장치를 설계할 수 있는 100만 게이트의 FPGA를 내장한 알데라(Altera)사의 엑스칼리버(Excalibur)를 이용하여 DC모터 제어용 SoC를 설계하였다. SoC란 System on Chip의 약자로 하나의 칩 안에 프로세서와 다양한 목적의 주변장치들을 집적하는 것을 말한다. 모터를 구동하기 위한 PWM신호 생성기를 하드웨어 설계언어(Hardware Description Language)로 구현하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 설계모듈을 검증하였다. 이렇게 검증한 PWM 생성기 모듈과 ARM922T Core를 합성하여 SoC를 설계하였다. PWM 생성기 모들을 구성하는 내부의 각 분분을 VerilogHDL로 코딩하여 심볼로 만들어 통합하는 방식으로 설계를 하였으며 실제 모터를 구동하기 위해서 프로세서가 동작할 수 있도록 C언어로 프로그램하여 함께 칩에 다운로드하여 테스트를 하였다. SoC를 기반으로한 시스템 설계의 장점은 시스템이 간단해지고 고속의 동작이 가능하며 회로의 검증 및 다양한 시뮬레이션이 용이하다는데 있다.

In order to test the board with IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan design, the test sequence must be applied as the bit stream However it is very tedious job to generate the test bit sequence since it requires the complete hlowledge about the 1149.1. This fuper introduces a convenient PCI/USB interface controller, named as Test-Ready PCI (TRPCI) ard Test-Ready USB (TRUSB). Test Bus Controller has been developed by TI and Lucent aiming to generate the test bit stream as an instruction level, thus even the novice test engineer can easily generate the test sequence.

Many existing test case generation researchers extract test cases from models. However, research on generating test cases from natural language requirements is required in practice. For this purpose, the combination of natural language analysis and requirements engineering is very necessary. However, Requirements analysis written in Korean is difficult due to the diverse meaning of sentence expressions. We research test case generation through natural language requirement definition analysis, C3Tree model, cause-effect graph, and decision table steps as one of the test case generation methods from Korean natural requirements. As an intermediate step, this paper generates test cases from C3Tree model-based decision tables using meta-modeling. This method has the advantage of being able to easily maintain the model-to-model and model-to-text transformation processes by modifying only the transformation rules. If an existing model is modified or a new model is added, only the model transformation rules can be maintained without changing the program algorithm. As a result of the evaluation, all combinations for the decision table were automatically generated as test cases.

This paper shows an implementation of the baseband processor compliant with the IEEE 802.11a standard. Some innovative techniques are proposed to fulfill the mandatory requirements of the standard. For verification and analysis of this design, we use a Platform-based SoC (system on chip) environment. The entire system consists of test-board for the baseband processor chip and the SoC platform for implementing MAC (medium access control).

SoC 분야에서 온 칩 버스는 전체 시스템의 성능을 결정하는 중요한 요소이다. 이에 따라 최근 ARM 사에서는 고성능 온 칩 버스 구조인 ML(Multi-Layer) AHB 버스를 제안하였다. ML AHB 버스는 저전력 임베디드 시스템에 적합한 버스 구조로써 현재 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만, 고가이기 때문에 ADK(AMBA$^{TM}$ Design kit) 구매에 대한 부담이 적지 않다. 본 논문은 ML AHB의 버스 구조인 버스 매트릭스 구현 및 ADK에서 제공되지 않는 테스트 환경 즉, Protocol Checker 및 Performance Monitor Module 구현에 관한 것이다.

Test scheduling of SoC becomes more important because it is one of the prime methods to minimize the testing time under limited power consumption of SoCs. In this paper, a heuristic algorithm, in which test resources are selected for groups and arranged based on the size of product of power dissipation and test time together with total power consumption in core-based SoCs is proposed. We select test resource groups which has maximum power consumption but does not exceed the constrained power consumption and make the testing time slot of resources in the test resource group to be aligned at the initial position to minimize the idle test time of test resources.

In this paper we present a method to generate the bit stream of static video test patterns for testing the picture quality in DTV system. The proposed user-defined quantization table is suitable for the static video test pattern and for minimizing the deterioration of picture quality by quantization, the underflow or overflow of video buffer generated on the process of coding the static video test pattern is compensated by a adaptive zero stuffing algorithm so that optimal picture quality is implemented. Experimental result showed that the test pattern stream encoded by MPEG-2 software with the proposed algorithm had a stable bit rate and good video quality during the decoding process, which is about 3 dB higher than that of the conventional case.

Power consumption during testing System-On-Chip (SOC) are becoming increasingly important as the IP core increases in SOC. We present a new algorithm to reduce the scan-in power using the modified scan latch reordering and clock gating. We apply scan latch reordering technique for minimizing the hamming distance in scan vectors. Also, during scan latch reordering, the don't care inputs in scan vectors are assigned for low power. Also, we apply the clock gated scan cells. Experimental results for ISCAS 89 benchmark circuits show that reduced low power scan testing can be achieved in all cases.

DSRC((Dedicated Short Range Communication) is dedicated short range communication for wireless communications between RSE(Road Side Equipment) and OBE(On-Board Unit) within vehicle moving high speed. In this paper, we implemented 5.8GHz DSRC modem according to Korea TTA(Telecommunication Technology Association) standard and investigated implementation results and design process for SoC(System on a Chip) embedding ARM CPU which control overall signal and process arithmetic work.
