In this work, OBT is applied to test Second-generation Current Conveyor (CCII) based filters for the first time. Adopting a CCII-based band pass filter as a case study, it is shown that OBT can be implemented with a minimally intrusive switched feedback loop to establish the oscillator. Exhaustive fault simulation indicates 98.11% detection of possible short circuit and 100% detection of possible open circuit faults in the circuit under test, in both 0.35μm and 1.2μm CMOS technology nodes.en© 2017 Institute of Electrical and Electronics EngineersContinuous time filtersAnalog testingFault simulationTestingOscillation based testing (OBT)Second-generation current conveyor (CCII)Text
