    摘要: Disclosed are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for test scheduling for testing a plurality of cores in a system on circuit. Test data are encoded to derive compressed test patterns that require small numbers of core input channels. Core input/output channel requirement information for each of the compressed test patterns is determined accordingly. The compressed patterns are grouped into test pattern classes. The formation of the test pattern classes is followed by allocation circuit input and output channels and test application time slots that may comprise merging complementary test pattern classes into clusters that can work with a particular test access mechanism. The test access mechanism may be designed independent of the test data.

    摘要: Disclosed are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for test scheduling and test access in a test compression environment. Clusters of test patterns for testing a plurality of cores in a circuit are formed based on test information that includes compressed test data, corresponding tester channel requirements and correlated cores. The formation of test pattern clusters is followed by tester channel allocation. A best-fit scheme or a balanced-fit scheme may be employed to generate channel allocation information. A test access circuit for dynamic channel allocation can be designed based on the channel allocation information.

    摘要: Methods and devices for using high-speed serial links for scan testing are disclosed. The methods can work with any scheme of scan data compression or with uncompressed scan testing. The protocol and hardware to support high speed data transfer reside on both the tester and the device under test. Control data may be transferred along with scan data or be partially generated on chip. Clock signals for testing may be generated on chip as well. In various implementations, the SerDes (Serializer/Deserializer) may be shared with other applications. The Aurora Protocol may be used to transport industry standard protocols. To compensate for effects of asynchronous operation of a conventional high-speed serial link, buffers may be used. The high-speed serial interface may use a data conversion block to drive test cores.

    摘要: Disclosed are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for partitioning-based Test Access Mechanisms (TAM). Test response data are captured by scan cells of a plurality scan chains in a circuit under test and are compared with test response data expected for a good CUT to generate check values. Based on the check values, partition pass/fail signals are generated by partitioning scheme generators. Each of the partitioning scheme generators is configured to generate one of the partition pass/fail signals for one of partitioning schemes. A partitioning scheme divides the scan cells into a set of non-overlapping partitions. Based on the partition pass/fail signals, a failure diagnosis process may be performed.
