— In this paper we propose a new method of test patterns compression based on a design of a dedicated SAT-based ATPG (Automatic Test Pattern Generator). This compression method i...
The paper presents a novel hierarchical approach to test pattern generation for sequential circuits based on an input model of mixed-level decision diagrams. A method that handles,...
This paper presents a technique that limits the maximum number of specified bits of any pattern in a given test set. The outlined method uses algorithms similar to ATPG, but explo...

This paper proposes an environment to address Testability Analysis and Test Pattern Generation on VHDL descriptions at the RT-level. The proposed approach, based on a suitable fau...
Existing built-in self test (BIST) strategies require the use of specialized test pattern generation hardware which introduces signicant area overhead and performance degradation...
Accumulators based on addition or subtraction can be used as test pattern generators. Some circuits, however, require long test lengths if the parameters of the accumulator are no...
A new approach for testing the bistable elements (latches and flip-flops) in scan chain circuits is presented. In this approach, we generate test patterns that apply a checking ex...
This paper presents a new approach for designing test sequences to be generated on–chip. The proposed technique is based on machine learning, and provides a way to generate effi...

In a faulty digital circuit, many (single) faulty gates may explain the observed findings. In this paper we are mostly concerned, not in obtaining alternative diagnoses, but rathe...
— Test Pattern Generation for combinational circuits entails the identification of primary input assignments for detecting each fault in a set of target faults. An extension to ...
