Abstract
In this paper, we propose a procedure to compact a test set for a combinational circuit. Given a test set in which all input values are specified, the procedure first identifies don´t care inputs of the test set, and next reassigns appropriate values to the don´t cares to achieve test compaction. The procedure can be applied repeatedly, until further compaction cannot be derived. Experimental results show effectiveness of the proposed procedure for the ISCAS benchmark circuits
