  • Abstract
    Bridging defects generate two currents related to the fault-free case: bridge current and downstream current. The latter may complicate the diagnosis of bridging defects. However, in CMOS technologies, the downstream current can be minimised at low power supply (VDD) values, thus facilitating the diagnosis of such defects. Experimental evidence of this behaviour is presented
