"During a pseudo-random testing of combinational circuits the pattern generator produces test vectors that are being applied to the tested circuit. The nature of the generator thus directly influences the fault coverage achieved. We discuss an influence of the type of the pseudo-random pattern generator on the fault coverage. In most cases a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) is used as a test pattern generator, while its generating polynomial is primitive to ensure a maximal period. We show that it is not necessary to use primitive polynomials, and moreover that their using is even undesirable in most cases. The observations are documented by statistical results." . "2"^^ . . .
