Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Recently, in at-speed scan testing, excessive capture power dissipation is a serious problem. Low capture power test generation methods using X-identification and X-filling techniques have been proposed to reduce capture power dissipation. Optimization problems for these two techniques to reduce low capture power dissipation are independently considered. Therefore, the efficiency of low capture power test generation using X-filling depends on the applied results of X-identification. In this paper, we propose an X-identification-filling co-optimization method to reduce the number of capture-unsafe test vectors using Partial MaxSAT Solver. The method assigns logic values to X-bits in order to justify values assigned to propagate target faults to pseudo primary outputs and to reduce the number of transitions on as many internal signal lines as possible. Experimental results show that our proposed method reduced the number of capture unsafe test vectors by 31.63% and the number of unsafe faults by 31.84% on average.
