Abstract |
| Machine learning methods are actively used for the construction of neuromorphic fault dictionaries (NFD), which provide diagnostics of faults in analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits in the associative mode. Many problems of a neural network training associated with a large amount of raw data can be solved by reducing the dimension of training sets and using only significant char-acteristics for training purpose.
Entropy-based method is proposed for selecting the essential characteristics of a training set, as well as a cor-responding algorithm is developed.
The study of the proposed method is performed for the benchmark circuit of the Sallen-Key analog filter. The results of experimental studies demonstrate the high efficiency of the proposed method.
The application of the proposed method has provided a reduction in the dimension of the training set by selecting the sufficient coefficients in 7.8 times and reducing the training time by 192 times, while demonstrating a high level of fault coverage. The resulting NFD provides coverage up to 100% of individual faults and up to 99.7% of the overall fault coverage for the filter.
The proposed method can be integrated into the design-for-testability flow for analog and mixed-signal ICs. |
