Abstract :
Tests that detect transistor stuck-open (TSOP) faults independent of timing skews in input changes may not exist for all TSOP faults in CMOS complex gates. A new design method is presented which does not require any extra hardware or test inputs to improve the testability of a CMOS complex gate
