Abstract

A novel method for designing a built-in self-test (BIST) programmable logic array (PLA) is presented. In the proposed design, the test pattern generator and the response evaluator circuits are very simple. The design requires a rearrangement of the AND (OR) planes on the basis of number of crosspoints in the product (output) lines in the PLA. A program has been developed to generate a BIST-PLA from a given set of specifications of the PLA. The program was developed in the Unix environment, and was used to carry out the study on 22 large PLAs.
