In this paper, a novel test point insertion methodology is presented for RTL designs that aims to reduce the data volume of scan-based transition delay tests. Test points are iden...
Efficient production testing is frequently hampered because current digital circuits require test sets which are too large. These test sets can be reduced significantly by means...

—Conventional scan design imposes considerable area and delay overheads. To establish a scan chain in the test mode, multiplexers at the inputs of flip-flops and scan wires are...
Circular built-in self-test (BIST) is a "test per clock" scheme that offers many advantages compared with conventional BIST approaches in terms of low area overhead, simp...
