Abstrakt: This paper presents a power-aware Reconfigurable Parameterizable Pseudorandom Pattern Generator (RP-PRPG) for a number of applications, including built in self-testing (BIST) and cryptography. Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSRs) are broadly utilized in pattern generation due to their efficiency and simplicity. However, the diversity of generated patterns, as well as their power consumption, improves through circuit modifications. This work explores enhancements to LFSR structures to achieve broader range of patterns with reduced power consumption for BIST-based applications. The proposed circuit constructed on the LFSR platform can be programmed to generate patterns with varying degrees of different LFSR configurations. Diverse set of patterns of any circuit arrangement can be created using any characteristic polynomial and by utilizing the reseeding capacity of the circuit. The circuit combines a double-tier linear feedback circuit with zero forcing methods, resulting in more than 70% transition reduction, thus significantly lowering power dissipation. The behaviour of the proposed circuit is assessed for characteristic polynomials with degrees ranging from 4 to 128 using various Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) topologies. For reconfigurable HDL and ASIC synthesis, the power-aware RP-PRPG can be used to generate an efficient set of stream ciphers as well as applications involving the scan-for-test protocol.
