Abstract

We describe the design and implementation of a dynamic power supply current sensor which is used to detect SRAM-specific faults such as disturb faults as well as logic cell faults. The sensor detects disturb faults by detecting abnormal levels of the power supply current. The sensor is embedded in the SRAM and offers on-chip detectability of faults.
