However, none of the existing test relaxation methods can control the distribution of identified don't care bits (X-bits), thus adversely affecting the effectiveness of IR-drop reduction. In this paper, we propose a novel test relaxation method, called Distribution-Controlled X-Identification (DC-XID), which controls the distribution of X-bits identified in a set of fully-specified test vectors for the purpose of effectively reducing IR-drop. Experiments on large industrial circuits demonstrate the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed method in reducing IR-drop, without lowering fault coverage, increasing test data volume and circuit size.}, pages = {1216--1226}, title = {Distribution-Controlled X-Identification for Effective Reduction of Launch-Induced IR-Drop in At-Speed Scan Testing}, volume = {E94.D}, year = {2011}, yomi = {ミヤセ, コウヘイ and オン, ギョウセイ and カジハラ, セイジ} }
