-Conventionallyself-test hardware is added after synthesis is completed. For highly sequential circuits like controllersthis design method eitherleads to high hardware overheadsor ...
The paper presents a synthesis approach for pipelinelike controller structures. These structures allow to implement a built-in self-test in two sessions without any extra test reg...
—Logical initializability is the property of a gate-level circuit whereby it can be driven to a unique start state when simulated by a three-valued (0, 1, ) simulator. In practic...
A technique for computing the switching activity of synchronous Finite State Machine (FSM) implementations including the influence of temporal correlation among the next state si...

In this paper, we propose an oscillation-based test methodology for sequential testing. This approach provides many advantages over traditional methods. (1) It is at-speed testing...
