Descrizione The performance of an SoC (System on a Chip) is defined as the maximum achievable clock frequency under worst-case conditions. The performance is difficult to measure directly. Therefore, on-chip monitor structures are added to the SoC, which provides an indirect view of performance. The implementation of those on-chip monitor structures should be integrated and established into the industrial SoC design flow. The thesis aims to establish advanced implementation methodologies for the on-chip monitor structures using design-for-test methods. All stages from the concept to the implementation on-chip are covered in the thesis. The student will gain a broad insight into industrial SoC development.
