We propose a new approach to test generation and test compaction for scan circuits that eliminates the distinction between scan operations and application of primary input vectors...
—Periodic on-chip scan-based tests have to be applied to a many-core processor SoC to improve its dependability. An infrastructural IP module has been designed and incorporated i...
Conversion of the flip-flops of the circuit into scan cells helps ease the test challenge; yet test application time is increased as serial shift operations are employed. Furthe...
We propose in this paper an extension on the Scan Chain Concealment technique to further reduce test time and volume requirement. The proposed methodology stems from the architect...
Abstract. A novel approach for using an embedded processor to aid in deterministic testing of the other components of a system-on-a-chip (SOC) is presented. The tester loads a prog...
