23. The ease with which the controller establishes specific signal values at each node by setting input values is known as:

A. Testability
B. Observability
C. Controllability
D. Manufacturability

Answer: C

Controllability is defined as the ease with which the controller establishes a specific signal values at each node by setting input values.

 

24. The ease with which the controller determines signal value at any node by setting input values is known as:

A. Testability
B. Observability
C. Controllability
D. Manufacturability

Answer: B

Observability is defined as the ease with which the controller determines signal value at any node by setting input values.

27. A Large number of input vectors are used to set a particular node (1) or (0), to propagate an error at the node to output making the circuit low on:

A. Testability
B. Observability
C. Controllability
D. All of the mentioned

Answer: A

The circuit is said to be low on Testability if the large number of input vectors are used to set a particular node (1) or (0), to propagate an error at the node to output.

 

28. Divide and Conquer approach to large and complex circuits for testing is found in:

A. Partition and Mux Technique
B. Simplified automatic test pattern generation technique
C. Scan based technique
D. All of the mentioned

Answer: A

29. LSSD stands for:
A. Linear system synchronous detection
B. Level sensitive system detection
C. Level sensitive scan design
D. Level sensitive scan detection

Answer: C

LSSD stands for Level sensitive scan design. The level-sensitive scan design technique was developed and pioneered by IBM and forms the basis for a structured approach to the design of testable circuits.
