testuhr - robots to generate configurable testuhren for scan based testing of electronic circuits with programmable testuhrsteuerungen

摘要

Systems, structures and methods for generating a test clock for scan chains to implement scan-based testing of electronic circuits are disclosed. In one embodiment, a test clock control structure includes a programmable test clock controller. The programmable test clock controller includes a test clock generator for generating a configurable test clock. It also includes a scan layer interface to drive a scan chain portion with the configurable test clock, and a control layer interface configured to access control information for controlling the scan chain portion. In another embodiment, a method effectuates scan-based testing of circuits. The method includes performing at least one intra-domain test and performing at least one inter-domain test using implementing dynamic fault detection test patterns, which can include last-shift-launch test patterns and broadside test patterns.
