Abstract
The parity testability of a single output is related to its partition in terms of maximal supergates, and a scheme is proposed for making an untestable circuit parity testable by augmenting its maximal supergates. Only a small amount of extra logic and a single external test-mode pin are required to complete the design. The test procedure is simple, and the hardware overhead is low
