Detection of transistor stuck-open faults in CMOS circuits requires two-pattern tests. Transition delay fault model is commonly used to model delay causing defects and it also requires two-pattern tests. In this paper we examine the relationship between the two fault models and propose a method for generating test patterns that achieve maximum coverage of both faults. In the proposed method we use an ATPG program for transition delay faults to generate test patterns for both faults. Experimental results are presented to evaluate the effectiveness of our approach.
