Abstract :
The escalating demand for technology integration in and around CMOS devices and the introduction of a large variety of new processes and structures to achieve challenging new product features is yielding new systems with an increasing level of test complexity. This test technique can be easily incorporated in the current digital test techniques using ATE (Automated Test Equipment) and therefore allowing economical large scale production testing of devices combining electrical and optical signals.
