Abstract(in English) In this paper we propose a test compaction method for path delay faults in a logic circuit. The method generates a compact set of two-pattern tests for faults on long paths selected with a criterion. While the proposed method generates each two-pattern test for more than one fault in the fault list, secondary target faults are selected from the fault list such that many other faults, which may not be included in the fault list, are detected by the test pattern. Even if faults on long paths in a manufactured circuit are not included in the fault list due to a process variation or noise, the compact test set would detect the untargeted faults. Experimental results show that the proposed method can generate a compact test set and it detects longer untargeted path delay faults.
