Description
Summary:(rather than ratioed logic gates) are investigated.
Bridging defects which occur in CMOS complementary gates
create new critical paths through the circuit. Finally, time
delay increases and decreases, therefore they can easily
domain testing and timing consideration for at speed voltage
domain tests are discussed and compared with other testing
faults are shown to be the cause of significant transition

provided by Hewlett Packard have verified the observations
Realistic bridging defects are shown to exist which are non-
