"Below the 90nm process node, delay test has become crucial to ensuring product quality," said Kun-Cheng Wu, Director of the Design Development Division at Faraday Technology. "The pattern compression technology provided by TestKompress enhances test quality with a robust set of delay tests and reduces the test cost at the same time. TestKompress proves to be very important to an SoC design company like Faraday."
TestKompress uses Embedded Deterministic Test (EDT) technology to reduce test data volume by up to 100X, allowing for significant improvements in both test quality and test cost. Given Faraday's large ASIC production volume, TestKompress provides a turnkey solution that helps Faraday maintain their competitive advantage
