Abstract(in English) Scan testing is one of the most popular test method fo VLSIs. In this test, only information of the circuit structure is used, the circuit might be transferred to invalid state by the shift operations and be tested. Therefore, it is considered that scan testing is over testing. Over testing causes yield loss and the increase in number of test patterns. K cycle capture testing was proposed to decrease over testing. However, the test application time is long. In this paper, we propose a test pattern selection method for test application based on k cycle capture stuck-at test generation to reduce test application time. Our method also aim to reduce the number of detected untestable faults.
