摘要:
A design support apparatus includes a unit that inputs a user net list created by using hard macro cells excluding test circuits, and a unit that arranges hard macro cells using a frame into which hard macro cells, where timing-converged physical information includes test terminals, and test circuits are embedded as arrangement/wiring information. Moreover, includes a unit that arranges and wires the test circuits using the arrangement/wiring information of the test circuit embedded into the frame, a unit that recognizes arrangement/wiring information where the arrangement/wiring information of the test circuits is removed from arrangement/wiring information obtained by wiring, and a unit outputs a net list of a logic structure.

摘要:
An apparatus enables a high quality test to be carried out within a short time, without forcing a severe design limitation on the designer and without an expensive tester. The apparatus includes a pattern generator built in an integrated circuit to generate pseudo random patterns as test patterns. A plurality of shift registers are configured with sequential circuit elements inside said integrated circuit. An automatic test pattern generating unit generates ATPG patterns. A pattern modifier modifies a portion, to which a predetermined value is required to be set in order to detect a fault, in said pseudo random patterns generated by said pattern generator, on a basis of said ATPG patterns, and inputs said modified pseudo random patterns to said shift registers.
