  • Abstract
    This paper describes FAUST, an MOS fault simulator with timing information. FAUST simulates the effects of realistic physical failures on MOS circuits and uses a static concurrent fault-simulation technique to evaluate the fault-free circuit and all the faulty circuits in one pass. FAUST produces voltage waveforms as well as logic tables with delay information for the fault-free circuit and for each of the faulty circuits.
