Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A new methodology for production phase testing of catastrophic short and open faults in Current Mode Logic (CML) circuits is proposed. The catastrophic faults induced in differential input CML circuits due to manufacturing defects are detected by manipulating the voltage levels of the inputs. The non-intrusive tests include functional (at-speed) tests, I/sub dd/ test, and a new test called common-mode test (CMT). Two high-speed interface circuits, a 622 Mbps SONET SIPO (Serial-in-Parallel-Out) and a PISO (Parallel-In-Serial-Out) are used as examples to illustrate the effectiveness of the tests. Using all three tests, SPICE simulations show that 88-90% fault coverage of catastrophic faults can be detected.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
