    Abstract
    The era of VLSI design necessitates the development of advanced Computer Aided Design tools. The main objective of this research was to introduce an intelligent automatic Sequential Circuit Test System, SCIRTSS, driven by A Hardware Programming Language, AHPL. SCIRTSS can handle the test vector generation process for VLSI circuits in an early state of the design loop, even before the generation of the final technology dependent network logic list. The driving force of the test generation process is the intelligent search program. The search program, supported by a set of heuristics and an accurate function level simulator, generates the test sequence to propagate the single fault effect to a primary output of the circuit. The test sequence generated is a concatenation of the sequences generated by the repeated searches on the state-space of the design. These sequences are verified by a parallel fault simulator. Design for testability techniques could be used to improve the test sequence generated. This system is user friendly and protable. Several circuits were tested under SCIRTSS, the results of some of them were introduced in this paper.

    Export search results

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
