Current drawn by a static CMOS VLSI integrated circuit during quiescent periods is extremely small and isnormally of the order of nanoamperes. However, it is remarkably susceptible to a number of failure modes. Manyfaults present in such ICs cause the quiescent power-supply current (IDDQ) to increase by several orders ofmagnitude. Some of these faults may not manifest themselves as logical faults, and would not be detected bytraditional IC test techniques
