Abstract(in English) Although there exists an inherent contradiction between security and testability for digital circuits, it is important to find an efficient design-for-testability methodology that satisfies both security and testability. The authors reported a secure and testable scan design approach by using extended shift registers that are functionally equivalent but not structurally equivalent to shift registers. The security level of the secure and testable scan architecture based on those shift register equivalents is determined by the probability that an attacker can identify the configuration of the shift register equivalent used in the circuit, and hence the attack probability approximates to the reciprocal of the cardinality of the class of shift register equivalents. In this paper, we clarify the cardinality of each class of shift register equivalents from several linear structure circuits, and present the lower and upper bound of the cardinality of the whole class of shift register equivalents. We also consider the enumeration problem of shift register equivalents and the synthesis problem of desired shift register equivalents.
