    摘要: A computer-implemented method of measuring bridge fault coverage for a test pattern for a circuit design to be implemented within a programmable logic device can include identifying simulation results and stuck at coverage of the circuit design for the test pattern (610, 620). Pairs of nets in the circuit design that are adjacent can be identified (625). Each type of bridge fault for which each pair is tested can be determined according to the simulation results (640, 645, 655, 660). A measure of bridge fault coverage for the test pattern can be calculated according to which types of bridge faults each pair is tested and which net of each pair acts as an aggressor for each type of bridge fault tested (675). The measure of bridge fault coverage can be output (680).

    摘要: A method of testing circuits in a programmable logic device is described. According to one embodiment of the invention, a method comprises steps of configuring a configurable logic block of the programmable logic device with a test signal source and a logic circuit; routing the test signal source to the logic circuit; and determining if the logic circuit is defective. According to an alternate embodiment, a method enables re-routing a path from a shift register to a lookup table to determine whether a lookup table is defective. According to a further alternate embodiment, a method enables localized routing to reduce the probability that a defect is a result of a routing defect.
