Small delay defects (SDD) based test escapes are caused by the nature of transition delay fault (TDF) ATPG, which propagates the fault effect along the shorter path in the interest of run time. However, owing to the benefits of a lesser pattern count and complexity, TDF ATPG is the most feasible option for delay testing. Faster than at-speed testing enhances the likelihood of detecting SDD. To generate the optimal test option and prevent over or under-testing the circuit, it is necessary to select the appropriate test clock period. The recently introduced Weighted slack percentage (WeSPer) metric is used in this article to identify the best SDD test option. The method’s benefit is combined with the proper selection of the optimal clock frequency to test the SDD. This article proposes an optimal test clock period selection method by considering the size of the smallest possible delay defect size that can fail the circuit during at-speed operation and the fault’s propagation delay. The proposed method is applied to the set of ISCAS89 and ITC99 benchmark circuits to evaluate its effectiveness. |
