Abstract(in English) Power consumption in LSI testing is higher than in functional mode since more switching activities occur. High power consumption causes excessive IR-drop and excessive delay, resulting in test malfunction. Excessive IR-drop does not uniformly occur in the whole area of circuit, but in certain areas where many switching activities occur. Therefore, it is important for efficient reduction of excessive IR-drop to locate areas where many switching activities occur during LSI testing. In this work, we propose a method to locate areas where many switching activities occur by focusing on the probability calculation for the combination of several logic gates in LSI design data.
