Abstract :
The relationship between faults in a synthesized multilevel network and in its collapsed two-level network is analyzed. A program to select a proper set of faults in the collapsed two-level network from the synthesized multilevel network is implemented. The test for selected faults will detect all single stuck-at faults of the synthesized multilevel network. The number of generated tests is about 50% less than the number for the two-level complete test set
