Efficient testability enhancement for combinational circuit
Y. Fang, Alexander Albicki · 2002
We propose a novel testability enhancement scheme based on XOR Chain Structure. The structure is effective for improving both controllability and observability. The insertion points are selected by fast testability analysis and random pattern resistant node source tracking. Experiments with ISCAS85 benchmark circuits show that the scheme is effective. The incurred hardware overhead and performance penalty is relatively low.
