A Fast Threshold Test Generation Algorithm Based on 5-Valued Logic

Description

Threshold testing, which is a VLSI testing method based on the acceptability of faults, is effective in yield enhancement of VLSIs and in selectively hardening VLSI systems. A test generation algorithm for generating test patterns for unacceptable faults has been proposed, which is based on the 16-valued logic system. In this paper, we propose a fast test generation algorithm based on the 5-valued logic system. Experimental results show that our proposed algorithm can generate test patterns for unacceptable faults with small computational time, compared with that based on the 16-valued logic system.
