Abstract

In this paper, an efficient non-scan design-for-testability (DFT) method for finite state machine(FSM) is proposed. The proposed method always guarantees short test pattern generation time and complete fault efficiency. It has a lower area overhead than full-scan and other non-scan DFT methods and enables to apply test patterns at-speed. The efficiency of the proposed method is demonstrated using well-known MCNC’91 FSM benchmark circuits.
