We extend the subsequence removal technique to provide signi cantly higher static compaction for sequential circuits. We show that state relaxation techniques can be used to ident...
In this paper, we propose an optimal gate sizing and clock skew optimization algorithm for globally sizing synchronous sequential circuits. The number of constraints and variables ...

Abstract— Substantial attention is being paid to the fault diagnosis problem in recent test literature. Yet, the compaction of test vectors for fault diagnosis is little explored...

We consider the problem of built-in test generation for synchronous sequential circuits. The proposed scheme leaves the circuit flip-flops unmodified, and thus allows at-speed ...
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...
