Abstract

In the paper, it is shown how testability analysis can be utilized both to modify digital data path in order to maximally enhance its testability at minimal costs and to offer information applicable during automated synthesis of a controller used to apply a test to the modified data path.  Our method takes a circuit structure described by means of a net-list as an input. The net-list contains information about how instances of particular module types defined in component libraries are interconnected by means of their interfaces. In both the library and net-list, module types belonging to various description levels (gate, register-transfer, system-on-a-chip etc.) can be placed in order to model multilevel or mixed designs. At the output of the method, modified data path and corresponding controller are produced.
