Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider an IC that originally requires 100 test patterns for complete fault coverage. You deploy test minimization and achieve full coverage with only 40 patterns. Discuss the implications of this reduction for testing time and resource allocation.

💡 Hint: Think about time savings and resource management.

Question 2

If an engineer uses a compression algorithm that achieves 50% reduction in test vector size while maintaining fault coverage, how does this affect testing efficiency and process?

💡 Hint: Consider the overall impact on testing logistics.
