Abstract
A novel BIST (built-in self-test) design that detects stuck-at, stuck-on, stuck-open, and bridging faults in CMOS PLAs (programmable logic arrays) is presented. IDDQ testing is used for detecting bridging faults. The overhead is comparable to that of existing BIST schemes. The testing can be performed at normal system speed. A PLA-size-independent BIST controller was implemented and tested on a number of industrial PLAs
