Abstract
We present new diagnostic algorithms for localizing connection errors in combinational circuits. Three types of errors are considered: extra, missing, and bad connection errors. Special test patterns are generated to rapidly locate the error. The algorithms are integrated within the PrevailTM system. Results on benchmarks show that the error is always located within a time proportional to the product of the circuit size, and the number of used patterns
