Scan design is extensively exploited to test transition delay faults (TDF). Broadside test commonly referred as launch on capture and skewed load test is also commonly referred as launch-on-shift are two approaches to test TDF’s through scan design. However arbitrary test vector pair application is not supported by scan design because of architectural constraint of scan and this eventually limits the
