Abstract In the absence of information about the layout one is left with no alternative but to consider all bridging faults. An algorithm for diagnosis of a subset of such faults, viz. single two line bridging faults in static CMOS combinational circuits is presented. This algorithm uses results from I DDQ measurement based testing. Unlike known diagnosis algorithms, this algorithm does not use fault dictionaries, it uses only logic simulation and uses no fault simulation. It also uses SOPS, a novel representation of subsets of two-line bridging faults resulting in an efficient algorithm. In spite of the large number of faults that we consider, our experimental results point to the computational feasibility of I DDQ Measurement based diagnosis of single two line bridging faults. It also shows the effectiveness of reducing the set of possible faults using I DDQ measurements.
