Abstract :
Per-test fault diagnosis methodology has been shown to be an effective one for the identification of complex defects. We improve a recent per-test technique by applying additional diagnosis on the outputs of the circuit. The new method brings in more evidence to support the true failures, hence improves the diagnostic quality. We show that this method can very well address several problems in previous work.
