Step 4 one: take the fault injected as row, output pin is set and injects the relation table between fault as row using the output pin of circuit-under-test;
Step 4 two: solve fault coverage, described fault coverage solution formula is as follows:
Selectedcoverage = # Selected - Detectablefaults # Detectablefaults Formula 1
Faultcoverage = # Detectablefaults # Totalfaults Formula 2
In formula, parameter Total faults representative is in all faults of injecting, and parameter Detectable faults is the fault that the normal operation of circuit is impacted; Some fault can not impact or not calculative fault the normal operation of circuit, and the fault coverage that is above-mentioned fault of parameter F ault coverage statement; Parameter S elected-Detectable faults represents the fault that the normal operation of circuit is impacted and is detected; Parameter S elected coverage is calculative fault;
1 quantity in the storer that inspection is connected with each output pin, maximum output pin corresponding to storer of quantity of choosing storage 1 selected pin 1 as first, described first has selected pin 1 for detecting the pin of maximum faults, the i.e. the highest pin of fault coverage;

Step 4 four: whether the described first number of faults of having selected pin 1 and second to select pin 2 to detect reaches predefined number of faults, first selected pin 1 and second to select the fault coverage of pin 2 whether to meet the requirement that presets fault coverage, if do not met, according to second, selected the screening principle of pin 2 to continue to select the 3rd to select pin 3, the described the 3rd has selected pin 3 to comprise maximum first and selected pin 1 and second to select the pin of pin 2 non-detectable faults by detecting, and whether the fault that judgement has selected pin to detect again meets the requirement of fault coverage, if do not met, continue to select the 4th to select pin 4 to n to select pin n according to above-mentioned screening principle, until the fault that the pin having selected can detect meets the requirement that presets fault coverage, stop screening and exiting,
Step 4 five: only need can meet predefined fault coverage to selecting pin to detect, complete the optimization to integrated circuit (IC) chip output pin.
Principle of the present invention: in all output pins of circuit-under-test, there is larger difference in the fault-detecting ability of each pin, the number of faults that the more and some other pin of number of faults that some pin can detect can detect is considerably less, so we just can be by being optimized and obtaining the pin that those fault-detecting abilities are stronger the output pin of circuit-under-test.Pin stronger these detection failure abilities is needed to monitored pin in reality, and this greatly reduces with regard to the number of pins that makes the required monitoring of test circuit.The reduction of the required monitoring number of pins of test circuit can make the complexity of test circuit and scale also reduce accordingly, and the hardware cost of final test circuit also just reduces along with the complexity of test circuit and the reduction of scale.
Having proposed OP method (the OPtimization of output pins) is herein optimized the output pin of circuit-under-test.When the monitored output pin number of circuit-under-test reduces, the fault coverage of whole circuit also has certain reduction, and institute in this way will reach balance exactly between hardware cost and fault coverage.By analysis hereinafter, can find that, when fault coverage is reduced to 90%, the hardware cost of test circuit will reduce more than 50%.In order to realize the optimization to circuit-under-test output pin, constructed the simulation frame of system herein, and proposed a kind of method for implanting fast and effectively and optimum data processing method simultaneously.The method of the invention is injected fixed and two kinds of faults of upset, and stuck-at fault is mainly to imitate the permanent fault causing due to physical imperfection in circuit, and upset is mainly the transient fault imitating in circuit.
Used herein to fault filling method be that an alternative MUX of the intermediate connection between higher level's door U1 and the door U2 of subordinate is replaced, as shown in Figure 1; Intermediate connection between higher level's door U1 and the door U2 of subordinate is replaced by a multichannel Chooser; In side circuit, need to inject a large amount of faults, for example in ISCAS reference circuit c3540, there are 1669 lines (1647 intermediate connection and 22 output pins), each line all needs to replace by above-mentioned MUX, if every line is replaced to MUX by manual method, not only needs long time but also is easy to make a mistake.The present invention proposes a kind of method of automatic replacement, ISCAS reference circuit is replaced with to MUX by these lines automatically software program is in service;
The every pair of corresponding output pin in two reference circuits is connected to two input ends of a comparer; Each comparer all connects a storer separately; Judgement, for the output response of two reference circuits described in each test and excitation, as identical, deposits 0 in storer; As difference, in storer, deposit 1 in.Take the fault injected as row, output pin is set using the output pin of circuit-under-test as row and injects the relation table between fault; Relation table is a two-dimensional matrix, and it has reflected the relation between all faults and each output pin injecting.The structure of relation table has utilized the storer in fault simulation experiment, using the data that store in each storer as row, and using each fault as row, table one is only schematic diagram of method described in the application, in table one, comprised altogether that 9 are injected fault and 6 output pins, described 6 output pins we in advance according to being defined as successively pin 1 to pin 6 from upper left to bottom right horizontally-arranged, be the Pin1 to Pin6 in table.As above said, 1 in table represents that this fault can be monitored, and 0 represents that this fault cannot be detected.For example, the second row second in table is classified 0 as and is shown that pin 2 can not detect the second failure of injection, and the second row the 3rd is classified 1 as and shown that pin 2 can be by the fault detect of the 3rd injection out.

In traditional fault coverage method for solving, exist so some pins, their detection failure abilities own are stronger, but most or all can be detected by the stronger pin of those detectabilities the fault that they can detect again, for example pin 2 in table one.Therefore, for try to achieve fault coverage optimum solution we need to and inject the relation table of fault to output pin and be optimized, optimize later result as shown in following table.

In table four, first has selected pin 1 to inject the detection case of fault to each is saved, because first selected pin 1 can detect maximum faults, no matter is to adopt any optimized algorithm, and first to have selected pin 1 be all the output pin that must be selected.The step of optimized algorithm is as follows: (1), choose pin and can detect the pin of maximum faults.The pin 1 of for example table one, injected altogether 9 faults, and pin 1 can detect wherein 6, has 3 faults not detect in table, and these 3 faults are respectively F2, F5 and F8, and the fault coverage that now can reach is 66.67%.(2), pin 1 is selected after choosing again and can be detected the pin that comprises maximum pin 1 non-detectable faults, and checks whether the fault coverage that can reach while selecting this two pins meets the demands.For example in Table 1, in 3 non-detectable faults of pin 1, pin 2,3,6 can detect respectively wherein 1, and pin 4 can not detect wherein any one and pin 5 can detect wherein 2, so should select pin 5 as monitored pin.Selecting after pin 5, the fault that pin 1 and pin 5 can be detected merges, and now finds to monitor pin 1 and pin 5 can detect 8 faults simultaneously, only has F8 to detect, and the fault coverage now reaching is 88.89%.The fault coverage whether fault coverage that inspection now can reach meets the demands, if meet the requirement of fault coverage, selects pin 1 and pin 5 as pin monitored in reality.(3), if can not meet the requirement of fault coverage in (2) step, continue to select to detect and comprise the pins that selected at most the non-detectable fault of pin, and whether inspection now meets the requirement of fault coverage, as met, exit and select these selecteed pins, if do not met this, repeat (3).For example in pin 1 and the non-detectable fault of pin 5, only have pin 6 to detect in Table 1, whether the fault coverage that inspection can reach while choosing this 3 pins meets the demands, if met, select pin 1,5,6, if do not met, repeat to choose until meet the condition of fault coverage.
To the checking of optimization method of the present invention: be N (number of 0 < N < output pin) if need the output pin number of monitoring, so just all combinations of choosing N pin from whole output pins are all listed, and then selected that wherein to make fault coverage be the combination of maximum one.Because the method for exhaustion has been considered each combined situation for concrete N value, so the method for exhaustion can be in the hope of optimum solution.
Due to each value of N (number of 0 < N < output pin) is verified need oversize time and also when output pin number is more present equipment do not support this verification method yet, so the present invention will verify N=5, N=8, N=10, tetra-kinds of situations of N=15, result as shown in Table 5.

Table five
The fault coverage method for solving that the present invention proposes when the pin number N=5 choosing, N=8, N=10, N=15 can reach the fault coverage identical with the method for exhaustion, therefore the method that the present invention proposes is optimum, especially, when N=5, the method that the present invention proposes is identical with the selected pin of the method for exhaustion.When the number of pins of choosing is more, the method that the present invention proposes and the method for exhaustion to choose in result some pin different, reason is the pin weak for some detectabilities, has multiple different combination can detect identical number of faults.For example selecting in Table 1 the combination of pin 1 and pin 2 is identical with the fault coverage of selecting the combination of pin 1 and pin 3 to reach.Therefore reach identical fault coverage and can have multiple different combination.In sum, the fault coverage method for solving that the present invention proposes makes output pin optimization efficiency the highest.
Above content is in conjunction with concrete preferred implementation further description made for the present invention, can not assert that specific embodiment of the invention is confined to these explanations.For this person of an ordinary skill in the technical field, without departing from the inventive concept of the premise, can also make some simple deduction or replace, all should be considered as belonging to the definite scope of patent protection of claims that the present invention submits to.
