  • Abstract
    Describes an automatic test pattern generation program for sequential digital circuits using a modified implementation of Petri nets. This is achieved by the insertion of a FAN transition to the Petri net model. The resultant system compares favourably (12% more coverage and 30% faster) with similar ATPG programs based on the established D-algorithm path sensitization technique
