Problem Overview
• Suppose:
– You’re working in circuit testing
– You test a great many combinational circuit designs
(many quite complex).
– You wish to find a way to automate testing of circuits
for Single Stuck-At (SSA) faults:
• A single circuit wire “stuck at” a constant value (e.g. 0 =
false=grounded)
• For any given fault, it would be nice to have a circuit input
which would give a different result if fault / no fault.
