Abstract :
In industry, chips become more and more complicated as advancing in deep submicron silicon process technology. LBIST can cover some newly emerging faults missed by traditional ATPG. That´s why LBIST is becoming more and more popular. Besides launching LBIST through TAP interface, CPU launch LBIST feature may provide more flexibility for system-level or product testing and debugging. System engineer can easily kick-off LBIST with CPU interface instead of TAP.
