  • Abstract
    The Niagara2 System-on-Chip is SUN Microsystem´s latest processor in the Eco-sensitive CoolThreads line of multi-threaded servers. This DFT survey of the Niagara2 chip introduces the RAWWCas memory test, a Hybrid Flop Design and a fast efficient bitmapping architecture called DMO. It also showcases some excellent DFT results for this challenging system-on-chip design project.
