  • Abstract
    The paper describes a method for 100% testing of the thermal impedance of integrated circuits using a temperature-sensitive parameter. The approach is applicable to automated test procedures, and results are presented on its use in testing a high-speed gate array. Alternative methods for assessing thermal impedance are discussed.
