Enhancing high-level control-flow for improved testability
TL;DR: Experimental results on several high-level synthesis benchmarks show that when this approach is used prior to logic synthesis, a shorter ATPG time, a smaller test set, and better fault coverage and ATPG efficiency are often achieved.

High-level variable selection for partial-scan implementation
Frank F. Hsu,Janak H. Patel +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a variable selection for partial scan approach is proposed to improve the testability of digital systems, where variable selection is evaluated at the high level based on previously proposed controllability and observability measures, and a testability grading technique is utilized to measure the relative testability improvement in a design.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Testability insertion in behavioral descriptions
TL;DR: A new synthesis-for-testability approach is proposed that uses control points at branch conditions to improve testability and results in significant improvements in fault coverage and reductions in test set size and test generation time.

Design for Testability Using State Distances
Frank F. Hsu,Janak H. Patel +1 more
TL;DR: The average distance between states is proposed as a new testability measure for finite state machines (FSMs) and the concept of center state to reduce distances in FSMs is proposed.
