  • Abstract
    This paper takes a look at the use of linear feedback shift registers (LFSRs) as test pattern generators (TPGs) and signature analyzers for built-in self-test (BIST). We also propose a method to generate pseudorandom test patterns. The proposed method can generate longer sequences of the same set of test patterns.
