Finally, the wait is over as the 6th edition of ITC India is about to start in a few days (from July 24 to July 26) at Radisson Blu, Bangalore. The products based on automotive and artificial intelligence are driving the growth of the modern semiconductor industry. These applications demand high quality, reliability, and security. Generally high-quality driven testing takes long test insertion, verification, and test application time, culminating into very high-test cost. Unfortunately, majority of the test time optimization techniques do not go hand in hand with low power testing techniques. The need of high reliability makes it necessary to detect latent defects using some stress conditions. The pressure of time to market does not provide any relief and mandates to have sophisticated diagnosis infrastructure for faster debug turnaround time. The concept of sophisticated diagnosis and idea of tight security are at loggerhead with each other. Finding optimum balance among quality, reliability, diagnosis, security and cost is a nontrivial task. These challenges make test faculty as one of the most challenging faculty of the modern-day VLSI industry. As part of our commitment to proliferate test in Indian academic institutions, we have included rich contents particularly carved out for students and faculties. The ITC provides an excellent opportunity to listen and interact with some of the best in the business test experts in the world.

ITC India is all set to host the 6^th edition of the conference from July 24^th – 26^th at Radisson Blu, Bengaluru, India.

The conference is back to in-person mode after 3 years with excellent keynotes, tutorials, technical papers, and panel discussions.

The keynotes and invited talks by technical experts and leaders cover all the major hot topics in test such as system level test, silicon analytics, 3DIC testing.

A special session on security by experts will cover effects of aging on security, security challenges in healthcare systems and techniques for detecting recycled ICs.

Starting this year, we are introducing short tutorials (90 minutes) along with full tutorials (180 minutes) to cover a bouquet of topics and also keep the contents focused.

We have planned 9 exciting tutorials that range from basics of test, DFT methodologies, analog testing, IEEE standards etc. to failure analysis challenges post silicon.

The panel discussion on Day 1 covers the challenges in of power aware testing and the Day 2 panel discussion deliberates on the burning problem of talent development in test domain.

There are many exciting technical papers planned along with a test reality check track that focuses on discussing day to day challenges faced by DFT engineers in the industry.

Starting this year, we are introducing a new academia track to provide a platform for PhD students in test/security domain to present their thesis and get invaluable feedback.

A new mentorship program to help research students will be unveiled at the conference.   

Review the agenda (attached) at  https://itctestweekindia.org/itc-2022-agenda/ and register for the conference at https://itctestweekindia.org/register/  to participate, learn and get connected with the test and security community in industry and academia across the globe.

Looking forward to hosting you at the conference!!

We welcome you to the 6th IEEE International Test Conference India. ITC India, sponsored by IEEE/TTTC is one of the premier conferences in the area of VLSI test reliability and caters to the development of the Indian semiconductor ecosystem. Over the last 6 years, the conference has grown in size and presence by increasing participation from the technical community in both industry and academia, across the globe. In the last couple of years, in spite of the Covid-19 situation, ITC India conferences continued to be held albeit virtually. Different tracks catering specifically to Academia & industry in the overall program – Academia Research Track, Test Reality Check Track were run. We plan to continue the same this year as well.
