In this paper, a high-speed test generation method for ultra large scale combinational circuits and full-scan circuits is presented. This method adopts finite backtracking test pattern generation method to generate test pattern, and uses parallel-pattern single-fault propagating method with n (machine word length) test vectors to validate the fault coverage. The test generation and fault simulation are integrated with n to 1 tightly coupled style. The method obtains desired results: shorter test pattern length, higher fault coverage and efficiency from execution of 10 ISCAS-85 benchmark circuits.
