Abstract: An optic probe is used to measure signals from a device under test. The optic probe is positioned at a target probe location within a cell of the device under test, the cell including a target net to be measured and a plurality of non-target nets. A test pattern is applied to the cell with the optic probe a laser probe (LP) waveform is obtained in response. A target net waveform is extracted from the LP waveform by: (i) simulating a combinational logic analysis (CLA) cross-talk waveform to model cross-talk from selected non-target nets by simulating an optical response of the cell to the test pattern with the target net masked; (ii) estimating a cross-talk weight; and (iii) determining a target net waveform by weighting the CLA cross-talk waveform according to the cross-talk weight and subtracting the weighted CLA cross-talk waveform from the LP waveform.

Abstract: A reconfigurable optic probe is used to measure signals from a device under test. The reconfigurable optic probe is positioned at a target probe location within a cell of the device under test. The cell including a target net to be measured and non-target nets. A test pattern is applied to the cell and a laser probe (LP) waveform is obtained in response. A target net waveform is extracted from the LP waveform by: i) configuring the reconfigurable optic probe to produce a ring-shaped beam having a relatively low-intensity region central to the ring-shaped beam; (ii) re-applying the test pattern to the cell at the target probe location with the relatively low-intensity region applied to the target net and obtaining a cross-talk LP waveform in response; (iii) normalizing the cross-talk LP waveform; and (iv) determining a target net waveform by subtracting the normalized cross-talk LP waveform from the LP waveform.

Abstract: A control system for placing an optic probe includes a receiver circuit that receives reflected light produced from the optic probe and provides a laser probe (LP) waveform of the reflected light in response to an activation of a trigger signal. A combinational logic analysis (CLA) processor provides a CLA waveform in response to simulating an optical response at a target location on a surface of a cell of a device under test to a test pattern. A test controller receives the CLA waveform and the LP waveform, and has a first output for providing the trigger signal, a second output for providing the test pattern, and a third output for providing a position signal. The test controller updates the position signal to move the optic probe closer to the target location according to a degree of fit between the LP waveform and the CLA waveform.

Abstract: A system for tracking a medical procedure includes a set of macros, a scanning device, and a control unit. Each macro in the set of macros is associated with instructions that execute a tracking step of a medical procedure. The scanning device is controlled by a user during the medical procedure to select a macro from the set of macros. The control unit executes the instructions associated with the selected macro to track the medical procedure.
