Abstract

For path fault testing, simulator may suffer from handling an enormous number of paths for their representation and simulation. This paper proposes a fast and memory-efficient path delay fault simulator TRANS. Applied to the ISCAS benchmark circuits except c6288 for one million patterns, TRANS runs within 2.5 hours and 2.2 mega-bytes for each circuit. Comparing the experimental results with one of DAC'89, TRANS gets 85 times the gain of memory-speed product.
