Abstract

The study of the relation between faults and its syndromes in signature analysis of computer hardware testing is presented. When an incorrect signature is observed, it is caused by one of many possible error sequences that contains errors at different locations. The characteristics of the error distributions are identified for greater fault coverage. Formal analysis is presented in conjunction with the subject of error-control code. The results provide insights to use deterministic test patterns in signature analysis.
