4.31 (Path-Delay ATPG)<br />

(a) There are 14 paths in the circuit:<br />

↑ afgj, ↓ afgj, ↑ bgj, ↓ bgj, ↑ befgj, ↓ befgj, ↑ cefgj, ↓ cefgj, ↑ chj,<br />

↓ chj, ↑ dhj, ↓ dhj,↑ ij, ↓ ij.<br />

(c) Both ↑ afgj and ↓ afgj are unsensitizable.<br />

4.32 (Path-Delay ATPG)<br />

Any path that requires a=1 and b=0 as a necessary condition would be<br />

unsensitizable.<br />

4.34 (Path-Del<br />

Delay ATPG)<br />

If the untestable path-delay fault is longer than the testable critical<br />

path, then incidental detection could lead to yield loss.<br />

4.36 (Bridging Faults)<br />

The largest current is drawn from Vdd to Ground if the resistance between<br />

them is minimal. So any test that can turn on parallel transisters at a<br />

same time in both the AND and OR gates such that a conduction occurs from<br />

Vdd to Ground would induce the largest current.<br />
