Appendix A Pseudo-Random Pattern A.1 Pseudo-Random Pattern Table A.1-1 shows the principle of pseudo-random pattern generation. A pseudo-random pattern is expressed in an N-th degree generating polynomial, with one cycle of 2 –1. For a PRBS pattern with a cycle of –1, a pattern of successive “1s”...

Zero-Substitution Pattern A.2 Zero-Substitution Pattern A string of successive “0s” for the number of set bits is made by substituting “0” for the pattern that follows the longest bit string of successive 0s in a PRBS pattern. In this event, if the bit immediately after the bit substituted to “0”...
