Abstract

In this paper we propose a new reseeding method for LFSR-based test pattern generation suitable for circuits with random pattern resistant faults. The character of our method is that the proposed test pattern generator (TPG) can work both in normal LFSR mode, to generate pseudorandom test vectors, and in jumping mode to make the TPG jump from a state to the required state (seed of next group). Experimental results indicate that its superiority against other known reseeding techniques with respect to the length of the test sequence and the required area overhead.
