Abstract :
Presents the application of fault detection observers as used in dynamic systems fault diagnosis to analog circuit testing. It will be shown that the fault detectability performance of fault detection observers is higher than those of optimal test vector generation methods which are based on maximising the differences of directly compared responses from the specification and the unit under test.<>
