Fault Diagnosis On Vlsi Adder Circuits Using Artificial Neural Network
Fault diagnosis on VLSI digital circuit is a technique to detect a fault and the location of the fault that present in a VLSI digital circuit. A faulty circuit in an IC can cause the IC to be malfunctioning and unusable. Therefore, the faulty circuit must be detected during the manufacturing process...

Fault diagnosis on VLSI digital circuit is a technique to detect a fault and the location of the fault that present in a VLSI digital circuit. A faulty circuit in an IC can cause the IC to be malfunctioning and unusable.
