When a test set size is larger than desired, some patterns must be dropped. This paper presents a systematic method to reduce test set size; the method reorders a test set using t...
Due to the rapidly growing speed and the decreasing size of gates in modern chips, the probability of faults caused by the production process grows. Already small variations lead ...
In this paper, we present test generation procedures to improve scan chain failure diagnosis. The proposed test generation procedures improve diagnostic resolution by using multi-...

| This paper reports the design of a Test Pattern Generator (TPG) for VLSI circuits. The onchip TPG is so designed that it generates test patterns while avoiding generation of a gi...
