Fault diagnosis of physical defects using unknown behavior model
A new fault model, called the X-fault model, is proposed for fault diagnosis of physical defects with unknown behaviors by using X symbols. An efficient X-fault simulation method and an efficient X-fault diagnostic reasoning method are presented. Fault diagnosis based on the X-fault model can improve the accuracy of failure analysis for a wide range of physical defects in complex and deep submicron integrated circuits.
