Abstract :
Testing of CoreWare based ASICs is emerging as the most challenging problem of the 1990s. The testing challenge is two fold: first, how to test the embedded cores; and second, how to integrate the test-set of a core with other blocks into ASIC level test-set. Each of these problems is further compounded by the Intellectual Property (IP) protection issue
