A generalized fault diagnosis in dynamic analog circuits
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fault diagnosis of analog circuits is essential for analog and mixed-signal systems testing and maintenance. A new method is proposed in this paper for multiple fault diagnosis of linear analog circuits in frequency domain. Woodbury formula is applied to the modified nodal equation to construct the fault diagnosis equation, which relates the limited measured circuit responses with the multiple faults inside the circuit in a linear way. A recently developed ambiguity group locating technique is modified here to identify the faulty parameters directly. Computation cost is reduced compared to combinatorial search in traditional fault verification methods. Only one node is needed for voltage measurement, but multiple excitations and corresponding measurements on accessible nodes are required for fault identification. Parameter evaluation can provide the exact solution to the deviated values of faulty parameters. The faulty parameter deviations can have any finite values. Example circuits are provided to illustrate the proposed method. Two other methods for multiple analog fault diagnosis sharing the same mechanism as the method proposed in this paper are also briefly described. The proposed method is extremely effective for the circuit with very limited accessible nodes and is also computationally efficient.
