Abstract(in English) With the miniaturization and high speed of large scale integrated circuits, it has become important to test delay faults. A transition fault that increase delay in a logic gate is one of the delay fault models. Since the detectable delay size of a fault depends on its test pattern, the test quality can not be evaluated sufficiently with fault coverage of the transition faults. As a method to evaluate delay test quality, statistical delay quality model (SDQM) has been proposed. Statistical delay quality level (SDQL) can be improved using tests generated by a commercially available timing aware ATPG tool. At present, methods of seed generation which convert test cubes for detecting faults into seeds are widely used. The care bit rate of the test cubes increases and the encodability ofsuch cubes becomes low when the methods are used with a timing aware ATPG. In this paper, we propose a method of SDQL-aware LFSR seed generation using a time expansion model of an LFSR. We also evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method by experiments using ITC’99 benchmark circuits.
