QUALITY EVALUATION METHOD AND GENERATION METHOD FOR DELAY FAULT INSPECTING SERIES, DELAY FAULT SIMULATION METHOD AND DELAY FAULT INSPECTING METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a quality evaluation method for delay fault inspecting series which can precisely evaluate the quality of delay fault inspecting series by taking a design delay value of a signal route which defines a delay fault into consideration. SOLUTION: The quality evaluation method for delay fault inspecting series excludes a delay fault which has a delay value lower than a predetermined design delay value out of the objects of the delay faults. The number of the remaining delay faults is used as a reference standard. An object to be compared is the number of delay faults which are detected by the quality evaluation method for delay fault inspecting series. By using a default detection ratio, which is the ratio of the object to be compared to the reference standard, quality of delay fault inspecting series is evaluated. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
