    Abstract: A scan chain may be formed throughout an integrated circuit in which the scan chain includes at least a first segment and a second segment. A first portion of a test pattern is scanned into the first segment by clocking a first scan cell of the first segment with an even clock while clocking a remainder of the plurality of scan cells in the first segment with an odd clock, in which the odd clock is out of phase with the even clock, in which the even clock and odd clock have a rate equal to a scan rate of the test pattern divided by an integer N. A second portion of the test pattern is scanned into the second segment by clocking the plurality of scan cells in the second segment with the odd clock, such that the second portion of the test pattern is not scanned into the first segment.

    Abstract: A circuit device is provided with a first codec including a first portion of a logic circuit and a second codec including a second portion of the logic circuit. The circuit device can also include a plurality of first scan chains coupled to the first codec and configured to shift a delayed test vector onto the first codec, wherein the delayed test vector is a test vector with a phase delay. A plurality of second scan chains can be coupled to the second codec and configured to shift the test vector onto the second codec.
