Original Abstract

In the paper, the methodology of testability analysis based on the concept of testable blocks is presented. In the methodology the power consumption during test application is also taken into account. For this purpose, power estimation tool was developed and implemented. Integration of the developed software into the Mentor Graphics design flow is described. Experimental results gained as a consequence of applying the methodology on both benchmark and practical designs are demonstrated. The intensions for future research are presented.

Keywords

Testable block, power consumption estimation, test vectors generation, power consumption optimization
