Verification: Pre and Post-Silicon Verification Have Never Been Closer! Leveraging Portable Stimulus for Automatic Test Equipment (ATE)

Moshik Rubin

The initial focus of the Portable Test and Stimulus Standard (PSS) was pre-silicon verification – even if the community, from the beginning, envisioned re-using pre-silicon test content in post-silicon. In this blog post, we will cover new use cases with PSS toward ATE: i.e., Automated Test Equipment typically used in production tests.
The Challenge
The ever-increasing design complexity of technology nodes and new…
