ABOUT THE SYNOPSYS SYNTHESIS-BASED TEST SOLUTION:

The Synopsys synthesis-based test solution is comprised of DFTMAX Ultra, DFTMAX and TetraMAX for power-aware logic test and physical diagnostics; the DesignWare® STAR Hierarchical System for hierarchical test of IP and cores on an SoC; the DesignWare STAR Memory System® for embedded test, repair and diagnostics; Yield Explorer®tool for design-centric yield analysis; and the Camelotsoftware system for CAD navigation. Synopsys’ test solution combines Design Compiler RTL synthesis with embedded test technology to optimize timing, power, area and congestion for test as well as functional logic, leading to faster time-to-results due to zero or minimal design iterations. The solution contains value links among the test products and across the Synopsys Galaxy Design Platform to enable faster turnaround time meeting both design and test goals, higher defect coverage and faster yield ramp.
