Test of Digital and Mixed-Signal Circuits
Faulty systems are annoying for all users. Modern test methods assist the design engineer to find as much faults as possible before shipping the product to the customer. So expansive recalls of products are avoided and the reputation of the manufacturer is saved.
In this course the terms "test" and "testability" are the keywords. Already during design process first steps must be made to have a testable product at the end. This includes methods directly in the object as well as in the external test equipment and the algorithms running on it. External referents extend the basics by reporting their personal experience in industry.
The course consists of lecture, seminar and exercise.
Course language is English.
