Abstract :
An efficient test generation procedure aimed at reducing test application cost in parallel-serial scan (PASE-scan) circuits is presented. The procedure is based on the structure and configuration of this type of full-scan circuits. The results obtained with a set of ISCAS89 benchmark circuits are provided, showing the effectiveness of this technique as regards test clock reduction
