Popis: Parallel signature analyzers (PSAs) implemented as multiple input linear feedback shift registers are very useful in compressing test response data in digital circuits. In this paper, some analytical results on error detection using a class of PSAs are presented. The concept of monitoring the most significant bit of a PSA is introduced. Finally, a PASCAL simulator, called SIGLYZER, to study the effectiveness of PSAs in detecting errors in test response data, is described. The use of the SIGLYZER as a design tool is also explained.
