Title
Theoretical properties of LFSRs for built-in self test
Abstract
Linear Feedback Shift-Registers have been studied for a long time as interesting solutions for error detection and correction techniques in transmissions. In the test domain, and principally in Built-In Self Test applications, they are often used as generators of pseudo-random test sequences. Conversely, their potential to generate prescribed deterministic test sequences is dealt within more recent works, and nowadays, allows the investigation of efficient test with a pseudo-deterministic BIST technique. Pseudo-deterministic test sequences are composed of both deterministic and pseudo-random test patterns and offer high fault coverage with a tradeoff between test length and hardware cost. In this paper, synthesis techniques for LFSRs that embed such kind of sequences are described.
