Abstract :
This paper presents the comparative study of on-line testing methods for AMS systems application to decimation filters. We present a case-study implementation of high-level-synthesis-for-testability (HLSFT) methodology for the case of a decimation filter implemented in a BIST circuitry for mixed-signal core testing. Three different self-test techniques are studied and compared for a 0.6, 0.35 and 0.18 μm CMOS technologies.
