  • Abstract
    The fault equivalence problem in programmable logic arrays (PLAs) is introduced. Some design rules are proposed. Based on the pseudoexhaustive testable PLA structure, a diagnosis algorithm was developed and implemented on a SUN 3/110 workstation in C language. Experimental results show that this design and the algorithm are quite efficient for PLA fault diagnosis
