Fault Classes – Mentor Terminology

  • Untestable Faults – UT
    • Unused – UU
    • Tied – TI
    • Blocked – BL
    • Redundant – RE
  • Testable Faults
    • Detected – DT
      • det_simulation – DS (faults detected when the tool performs fault simulation)
      • det_implication – DI (faults detected when the tool performs learning analysis)
      • det_robust
      • det_functional
    • Posdet – PD
      • posdet-testable – PT (Can be detected by increasing the test generator abort limit)
      • posdet-untestable – PU
    • ATPG Untestable – AU (Cannot be detected by increasing the test generator abort limit)
    • Undetected – UD
      • Uncontrolled – UC
      • Unobserved – UO
