  • Abstract
    The effects of gate to channel breakdown on the operation of BiCMOS logic gates are described. Both the static and dynamic behaviors of the gates are examined. The results of a SPICE simulation are presented. They show that gate to channel breakdown cannot be modeled by a stuck-at fault. Iddq and delay testings are effective in detecting these defects. Test patterns for Iddq are given
