FAQs

Can Tessent BIST solutions be used as a safety mechanism in an automotive design?

Yes. Both Memory BIST and Logic BIST are great technologies to use as a safety mechanism, as they provide extremely high diagnostics coverage with minimal area.

Are the Tessent tools ISO26262 certified?

Yes, for each release there is an ISO 26262 certification that ensure the tools are suitable for use with Automotive projects.

What level of security does using Tessent Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) products provide in terms of access to sensitive data on chip?

Both TestKompress and SSN provide a level of data obfuscation due to the compression and the packetization that make it hard for any attacker to make use of the data coming from the scan architectures. We also plan to increase the level of obscurity even further with new technology.

Can the in-system test technologies be used while the device is in its target application?

Yes. The MissionMode In-system test controller allows you to run your system tests in many different test scenarios, including being able to test the device during functional operation.
