使用分段扫描链的集成电路测试

Integrated circuit testing using segmented scan chains
Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes a plurality of logic circuits and a scan chain for testing the plurality of logic circuits. The plurality of logic circuits include the first and second logic circuits. The scan chain includes the first and second scan chain portions. The first scan chain portion is configured to test the first logic circuit based on a scan input test pattern applied thereto and output the first output test pattern. The second scan chain portion is configured to test the second logic circuit based on the first output test pattern and output the second output test pattern. A switching unit is provided to select and output one of the first output test pattern and the second output test pattern as a scan output test.
