At Avecas, we understand that building a high-performance chip is only half the challenge—ensuring it is testable, reliable, and defect-free is equally critical. Our Design for Testability (DFT) services help semiconductor companies integrate robust testing methodologies right at the design stage, enabling faster time-to-market and reducing manufacturing risks.
Modern SoCs and ASICs are incredibly complex, with billions of transistors. Without proper testability, even small defects can cause system failures, leading to high costs and delays. DFT ensures your design is easily verifiable, scalable, and production-ready, while keeping testing costs minimal.
Achieve high fault coverage with efficient scan chains and test patterns.
Embedded logic and memory test solutions for faster, automated verification.
Ensure connectivity testing and board-level diagnostics with industry-standard boundary scan methods.
Power-aware test techniques that minimize leakage and ensure test integrity for low-power SoCs.
Comprehensive checks to ensure all DFT structures meet performance and manufacturability requirements.

DFT Services – Common Questions Answered
DFT is critical in semiconductors, consumer electronics, automotive, aerospace, and telecom, where reliability is non-negotiable.
We use advanced scan insertion, ATPG, BIST, and power-aware test techniques to maximize fault coverage and test efficiency.
Design for Testability (DFT) is the design process of adding test structures to a chip, while Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) is the software-driven process of generating test vectors to detect faults using those structures. In short, DFT makes a design testable, and ATPG performs the actual testing.
Yes, our DFT methodologies are technology-agnostic and optimized for multiple nodes (7nm, 14nm, 28nm, etc.) and leading foundries.
We work with industry-standard tools such as Synopsys DFTMAX, Cadence Modus, Mentor Tessent, and customized in-house scripts.
Yes, we at Avecas provide consulting and partial engagement models, helping startups achieve robust testability without a large in-house DFT team.
