A wrapper is a thin shell around the core, that provides the switching between functional, and core-internal and core-external test modes. Together with a test access mechanism (T...

This paper presents a new method for designing test wrappers for embedded cores with multiple clock domains. By exploiting the use of multiple shift frequencies, the proposed meth...
The manufacturing test cost for mixed-signal SOCs is widely recognized to be much higher than that for digital SOCs. It has been shown in recent prior work that the use of analog ...
Testing of embedded cores is very difficult in SOC (system-on-a-chip), since the core user may not know the gate level implementation of the core, and the controllability and obse...
Memory cores (especially SRAM cores) used on a system chip usually come from a memory compiler. Commercial memory compilers have their limitation— a large memory may need to be ...
