Abstract

Computer Aided Diagnosability Of Circuits (CADOC), a new method is developed for isolating and pin-pointing a faulty device in digital circuits. CADOC is based on graph-theoretic principle and PFD numbers. Without considering any SA1 or SAO faults, we can zoom out faulty device by selecting different diagnostic path to narrow down the faulty region and to isolate the faulty device. The efficiency of this new technique is confirmed by applying the technique to many examples.
