This paper presents a automatic test pattern generationtechnique to improve the diagnostic resolution of a giventest set. Each test pattern generated by existing techniquesdetects a large number of faults. Identifying the faulty candidatefrom a large set of possible fault candidates is extremelydifficult and time consuming. A novel framework toadaptively generate additional patterns for diagnosing thefaulty location is presented. The additional patterns prunea set of fault free candidates from the possible fault candidates.The proposed technique improves the diagnostic resolutionwhere each new pattern detects only a small numberof faults and each fault is detected by few patterns. Theproposed method is applicable to any fault model and distinguishesa large number of faults with a small number ofpatterns. For simplicity we demonstrate the effectiveness ofthe approach on the path delay fault model.
