  • Abstract
    This paper proposes comprehensive fault models to accommodate the typical manufacturing defects in resonant tunneling diode (RTD) threshold logic integrated circuits. The defects, such as device (field-effect transistor or RTD) short or open, can be modeled as conditional stuck-at fault models. The errors due to the RTD size variations are abstracted as threshold-change fault models. A testing methodology based on the proposed fault models is presented.
