Abstract

An accelerated fault simulation approach for path delay faults is presented. The distinct features of the proposed fault simulation method consist in the application of parallel processing of patterns at all stages of the calculation procedure, its versatility to account for both robust and nonrobust decision of path delay faults, and its capability of efficiently maintaining large numbers of path faults to be simulated.
