Title:
LOSSLESS COMPRESSION AND DECOMPRESSION METHODS FOR TEST VECTOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/052329
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a lossless compression method for a test vector, the method comprising the following steps: S01: converting a test vector into a data stream of A rows and B columns, wherein the data stream is expressed using a binary system; S02, sequentially compressing the data stream column-by-column to form compressed words and non-compressed words corresponding to each column of data, wherein specifically, the method for compressing each column of data comprises the steps of setting a window to have a width of one bit and a depth of M rows, and sliding the window downwards row-by-row from the top of the column of data to sequentially form compressed words and non-compressed words of each column; and S03, converging the compressed data of each column of data to form a compressed data stream. The present invention provides lossless compression and decompression methods for a test vector, and the compression method is simple and rapid, and is applicable to the field of ATE tests.
