Abstract

Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for determining diagnostic coverage for achieving functional safety. A diagnostic coverage determination system employs an optimized process for efficiently determining a diagnostic coverage level of an electronic circuit. The diagnostic coverage determination system generates an optimized netlist that includes a reduced number of nodes by applying one or more node reduction techniques. The diagnostic coverage is determined based on the optimized netlist, thereby reducing the number of nodes that are injected with faults.
