Abstract

In this paper, we describe an experiment aboutstructural testing of two XILINX FPGAs families. In ourpractical approach, the FPGA is divided into differentarrays: an array of logic cells, an array of interconnectcells and an array of RAM cells. For each part, we use aspecific fault model and we generate test configurationsand test vectors for the considered models. In each case,for each array, we try to minimize as much as possible thenumber of test configurations because re-programmingFPGAs is really time consuming.
