Abstract :
In experiments examining test pattern generators using LFSRs with and without phase shifters as sources of 2D stimuli, generators with phase shifters consistently achieved higher hit ratios than those without. Moreover, a new algorithm synthesizes phase shifters, minimizes linear dependencies, and balances the use of generator stages.
