In this paper we investigate methods to detect delay faults in circuits that use standard scan design. We demonstrate that delay faults at several sites in a circuit cannot be detected using standard launch off capture and launch off shift tests that use two test cycles. However, faults at these sites are detectable using tests that use more than two test cycles. Experimental results on benchmark and industrial circuits that use standard scan design show that substantial numbers of transition delay faults require tests using more than one fault activation cycles to detect them.
