Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) A field testing that monitors the values of circuit outputs and internal signal lines during function mode is used as one of the means to avoid failures due to aging of VLSIs. Especially, VLSIs on automobiles needs to be tested in a short time when the engines are started, using built-in self-test. In built-in self-test, scan design which can obtain high fault coverage is generally used. However, there are problems such as large area overhead and long test execution time compared to non-scan design. In non-scan design-based field testing, a status signal sequence generation method to execute each state transition of the controller at least n times was proposed. In this paper, we propose a don't care filling method for control signals to increase fault coverage in field testing. In the proposed method, a structural symbolic simulation is performed with status signal sequences for n state transition cover, hardware elements which have not been tested are identified, and logic values are assigned to don't cares in control signals to test the hardware elements.
