Abstract
This paper presents a new technique for testing a two dimensional array independently of the number of cells (C-testability). This technique is based on a cellular automata characterization of a cell. Additional states are included in the original state transition table to permit the test input to be regenerated internally to the array. Faulty states are propagated to the output. A single faulty cell is assumed. It is proved that the proposed technique requires a lower number of test vectors than published approaches to C-testability.
