Features: The study of System-on-Chip (SoC) has a long history and remains highly vibrant and increasingly active. This field covers a broad scope, involving semiconductor physics, circuit theory, simulation software, algorithms, and more, with its applications permeating all aspects of electronics, communications, control, and beyond. This book presents up-to-date content with rich examples, covering three main aspects: core chip design, computer-aided design tools, and chip testing methods. It places particular emphasis on fault-tolerant design and testability design for SRAM-based Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). Taking FPGA chips as examples, the book discusses the severe impacts of faults on programmable chip structures, introduces major fault-tolerant design techniques currently in use, and analyzes and studies fault-tolerant design examples related to SRAM-based FPGA chips. This book serves as a valuable reference for fields such as chip testability design and analysis, circuit fault-tolerant design, and FPGA chip design in China. It is highly adaptable, offering significant reference value for experts, professors, graduate students in this discipline, as well as undergraduates and general technical personnel.
