Abstract :
This paper presents a simulation-based study of the stuck-open fault testing in CMOS logic circuits. A novel built-in self-test (BIST) technique is presented for detecting stuck-open faults in these logic families. This scheme does not need test-pattern generation, and thus can be used for robust on-line testing. Simulation results for area, delay, and power overheads are presented.
