We presented nine new black box delay fault models for non-scan sequential circuits at the functional level, when the primary inputs and primary outputs are available only. We examined the suggested fault models in two stages. During the first stage of the experiment, we selected the best two fault models for further examination on the base of criterion proposed in the paper. During the second stage, we used the functional delay fault model and two black box delay fault models from the first stage for test selection. The comparison of fault coverages was carried out for transition faults. The obtained results demonstrate that transition fault coverages of tests selected based on proposed black box fault models are similar to coverages of tests selected based on functional delay fault model that uses the inner state of circuit.

Abstract In this paper, we present a scan chain fault diagnosis procedure. The diagnosis for a single scan chain failure is performed in three steps. The first step uses special chain test patterns to determine both the faulty chain and the fault type in the faulty chain. The second step uses a novel procedure to generate special test patterns to identify the suspect scan cell within a range of scan cells. Unlike previously proposed methods that restrict the location of the faulty scan cell only from the scan chain output side, our method restricts the location of the faulty scan cell from both the scan chain output side and the scan chain input side. Hence the number of suspect scan cells is reduced significantly in this step. The final step further improves the diagnostic resolution by ranking the suspect scan cells inside this range. The proposed technique handles both stuck-at and timing failures (transition faults and hold time faults). The experimental results based on simulation and silicon units for several products show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A two-dimensional in space fractional diffusion equation with functional delay of a general form is considered. For this problem, the Crank-Nicolson method is constructed, based on shifted Grunwald-Letnikov formulas for approximating fractional derivatives with respect to each spatial variable and using piecewise linear interpolation of discrete history with continuation extrapolation to take into account the delay effect. The Douglas scheme is used to reduce the emerging high-dimensional system to tridiagonal systems. The residual of the method is investigated. To obtain the order of the method, we reduce the systems to constructions of the general difference scheme with heredity. A theorem on the second order of convergence of the method in time and space steps is proved. The results of numerical experiments are presented.
