We propose a Built-In Self-Test (BIST) paradigm for analog and mixed-signal (A/MS)
Integrated Circuits (ICs), called symmetry-based BIST (SymBIST). SymBIST exploits inherent …

We propose a Hardware Trojan (HT) attack for analog circuits with its key characteristic
being that it cannot be prevented or detected in the analog domain. The HT attack works in …

This paper aims to develop an approach to test analog and mixed-signal embedded-core-
based system-on-chips (SOCs) with built-in hardware. In particular, oscillation-based built-in …

The paper discusses a variety of sensors to enable a built-in test in RF devices. The list of
sensors includes dummy circuits, process control monitors, DC probes, an envelope …

We propose an antipiracy security approach for programmable analog and mixed-signal
(AMS) integrated circuits (ICs). The security approach relies on functionality locking by …

Oscillation-based test (OBT) techniques show promise in detecting faults in mixed-signal
circuits and require little modification. to the circuit under test. Comparing both the …

Driven by the need of reducing the defective circuits to a minimum, present-day fabrication
technologies require design techniques been complemented by effective test procedures. In …

This paper discusses a new type of sensors to enable a built-in test in RF circuits. The
proposed sensors provide DC or low-frequency measurements, thus they can reduce …

The computational model of population protocols is a formalism that allows the analysis of
properties emerging from simple and pairwise interactions among a very large number of …

This paper presents an analog built-in testing (BIT) architecture and its implementation. It
enables the frequency response and harmonic distortion characterizations of an integrated …
