7 A multi-layer research and training platform for system-on-chip testing 7 Defect Study using DefSim DefSim is an integrated circuit (ASIC) and a measurement equipmrnt for experimental study of CMOS defects. The central element of the DefSim equipment is an educational IC with a large variety of shorts and opens physically inserted into a set of simple digital circuits. The IC is attached to a dedicated measurement box serving as an interface to the computer. The box supports two measurement modes - voltage and I DDQ testing. http://www.defsim.com
