With the ever increasing process variability in recent technology nodes, path delay fault testing of digital integrated circuits has become a major challenge. A randomly chosen long path often has no robust test and many of the existing non-robust tests are likely invalidated by process variations. To generate path delay fault tests that are more tolerant towards process variations, the delay test generation must evaluate different non-robust tests and only those tests that sensitize the target path with a sufficiently high probability in presence of process variations must be selected. This requires a huge number of probability computations for a large number of target paths and makes the development of very efficient approximation algorithms mandatory for any practical application. In this paper, a novel and efficient probabilistic sensitization analysis is presented which is used to extract a small subcircuit for a given test vector-pair. The probability that a target path is sensitized by the vector-pair is computed efficiently and without significant error by a Monte-Carlo simulation of the subcircuit.
