摘要
In this paper, a testable 2-D motion estimation (TME) design at the bit level (TMEbit) based on the C-testability conditions are proposed. In order to meet the testability conditions, the bit-level cell functions are made bijective. Our C-testability conditions guarantee about 100% fault coverage for single cell fault model with a constant number of test patterns. The number of test patterns is 128. To verify the proposed technique, an experimental chip is implemented with TSMC 0.18 mu m technology. According to experimental results, the gate count of the design is about 159 K and the design can operate at the frequency up to 100 MHz. The hardware overhead used to make it C-testable is about 7%.
