Spectral Chip Test Research, LLC

Spectral provides value to chip designers

Spectral Chip Test Research builds design-for-test software for semiconductor teams that makes silicon chips testable before they reach the fab. Our tools read a design the way information theory does, then act on what they find.

Our Test Point Inserters automatically insert snippets of hardware into a design to make it fully testable, raising fault coverage to 99.98%.
