Reliability Design for ViaLink™ Lifetest
Goal: Verify long term reliability of programmed and un-programmed vialinks with HTOL and LTOL tests Design Create worst case design, beyond customer’s ability Use all FPGA logic, memory and I/O resources Use all wiring types, with associated ViaLinks™ Worst case design constraints Force fan-out = 16 (user restricted to fan-out=10) Force fixed placement to drive long interconnects Force use of worst case ViaLinks™ with fixed placement Disable automatic buffering Use design structures which may be toggled efficiently during life test Lake 126 / MAPLD2004
