  • Abstract
    The tradeoff between IP protection and SoC-level test optimization has been an issue for some time. The more IP providers protect their IP, the less flexibility system developers have to control test costs and fault coverage. In this paper, a new approach dynamically extracts IP-related test information or optimizing SoC testing without jeopardizing IP protection.
