A broad-side delay test is a form of a scan-based delay test, where the first vector of the pair is scanned into the chain, and the second vector of the pair is the combinational circuit's response to this first vector. This delay test form is called "broad-side'' since the second vector of the delay test pair is provided in a broad-side fashion, namely through the logic. This paper concentrates on generation of broadside delay test vectors; shows the results of experiments conducted on the ISCAS sequential benchmarks, and discusses some concerns of the broad-side delay test strategy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
