    abstract = {BIST is an attractive approach to detect delay faults due to its inherent
      support for at-speed test. Deterministic logic BIST (DLBIST) is a technique
      which was successfully applied to stuck-at fault testing. As delay faults have
      lower random pattern testability than stuck-at faults, the need for DLBIST
      schemes is increased. Nevertheless, an extension to delay fault testing is not
      trivial, since this necessitates the application of pattern pairs.
      Consequently, delay fault testing is expected to require a larger mapping
      effort and logic overhead than stuck-at fault testing. In this paper, we
      consider the so-called transition fault model, which is widely used for
      complexity reasons. We present an extension of a DLBIST scheme for transition
      fault testing. Functional justification is used to generate the required
      pattern pairs. The efficiency of the extended scheme is investigated by using
      industrial benchmark circuits.},

    abstract = {Built-in self test is a major part of the manufacturing test procedure for the
      Cell Processor. However, pseudo random patterns cause a high switching activity
      which is not effectively reduced by standard low power design techniques. If
      special care is not taken, the scan-speed may have to be reduced significantly,
      thus extending test time and costs. In this paper, we describe a test power
      reduction method for logic BIST which uses test scheduling, planning and
      scan-gating. In LBIST, effective patterns that detect additional faults are
      very scarce after a few dozens of scan cycles and often less than one pattern
      in a hundred detects new faults. In most cases, such an effective pattern
      requires only a reduced set of the available scan chains to detect the fault
      and all don´t-care scan chains can be disabled, therefore significantly
      reducing test power.},
