Abstract(in English) Resistive Open Faults (RoF) are known to be major sources of small delays in Deep Sub-Micron devices. Excessive IR drop during test results in delay variation that would cause incorrect diagnosis for small delay faults such as RoFs. We believe that the patterns with low IR drop can help avoid incorrect diagnosis. Therefore, we propose a test pattern selection method for RoF diagnosis under the constraint of low IR drop. Our method first selects the patterns for target faults whose longest sensitized path have high IR drop from a pre-generated test set, and then it conducts x-identification and x-filling on the risky pattern set to generate safety patterns with low IR drop for the target faults. Simulated Annealing algorithm is introduced for exploring the best x-filling. Experimental results show the effectiveness of our selection.
