Methods to reduce test application time for accumulator-based self-test
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...

ATPG for scan chain latches and flip-flops
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...

Incremental logic rectification
We address the problem of rectifying an incorrect combinational circuit against a given specification. Based on the symbolic BDD techniques, we consider the rectification process,...

Fast Algorithms for Static Compaction of Sequential Circuit Test Vectors
Two fast algorithms for static test sequence compaction are proposed for sequential circuits. The algorithms are based on the observation that test sequences traverse through a sm...

Critical hazard free test generation for asynchronous circuits
We describe a technique to generate critical hazard-free tests for self-timed control circuits build using a macromodule library, in a partial scan based DFT environment. Wepropos...

SHOrt voltage elevation (SHOVE) test for weak CMOS ICs
A stress procedure for reliability screening, SHOrt Voltage Elevation (SHOVE) test, is analyzed here. During SHOVE, test vectors are run at higher-than-normal supply voltage for a...
