Latest Patents
Brad A Kelly holds a patent for a "Circuit marginality validation test for an integrated circuit." This invention introduces a high volume manufacturing (HVM) and circuit marginality validation (CMV) test for integrated circuits (ICs). The IC features a port binding and bubble logic in the front end, allowing flexibility in binding a port to the micro-operation (uop) and creating empty spaces (bubbles) in the uop flow. The out-of-order (OOO) cluster of the IC includes reservation disable logic to manage the flow sequence of the uops and stop schedule logic to temporarily halt the dispatching of uops from the OOO cluster to the execution (EXE) cluster. The EXE cluster generates fault information through signal event uops and specifies combinations of branch prediction, direction, and resolution in any portion of the test using fused uJump uops. These features provide testers with the flexibility to perform HVM and CMV testing of the OOO and EXE clusters of the IC.
