Summary:
This paper presents a new methodology for diagnosing transistor leakage faults in a CMOS circuit by using both IDDQ and logic value information. A hierarchical procedure is used to identify and delete impossible fault candidates efficiently and a procedure is employed to generate diagnostic tests for improving diagnostic resolution. A novel approach for handling the intermediate output voltage of a faulty gate is used in new methods for fault simulation and diagnostic test generation based on primary output values. Experimental results on ISCAS 85 circuits show the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.
