Abstract
A method and an apparatus for evaluating SDDC of a test pattern set are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes: (1) selecting a transition fault of an IC detected by a test pattern set, the transition fault occurring at a fault site of the IC, (2) identifying path delays of a longest testable path and a longest tested path of the IC, wherein both the longest testable path and the longest tested path include the fault site, (3) determining a SDD detection probability for both the longest testable path and the longest tested path based on a probability that a SDD will be detected if present at the fault site and (4) calculating SDDC for the transition fault by dividing the SDD detection probability of the longest tested path by the SDD detection probability of the longest testable path.
