Abstract
In order to improve the testabilities and power consumption, a new state assignment technique based on m-block partition is introduced in this paper. The length and number of feedback cycles are reduced with minimal switching activity on the state variables. Experiment shows significant improvement in power dissipation and testabilities for benchmark circuits.
