Abstract

The paper presents a new method of formal testability analysis made on the RT level in PROLOG environment. This analysis is based on a model which classifies the RT level elements into categories by their function during the testing. The results of the analysis are used for designing a combined test mode in which elements accessible through I-paths are tested with a sequence of parallel test vectors whereas the serial scan method is used only for the remaining elements. This leads to savings both in test application time and in chip area overhead.
