In designs using DFT such as scan some of the faults that are untestable in the circuit without DFT become testable after DFT insertion. Additionally, scan tests may scan in illegal or unreachable states that cause non-functional operation of the circuit during test. This may cause higher than normal power dissipation and demands on supply current. We propose new techniques to determine illegal states of circuits that can be used during ATPG to prohibit tests using such states. The resulting tests are essentially functional or pseudo-functional.
