Abstract
In general the industry needs to move from a separate step of design for test to solving test issues as an integral part of the design process. Test synthesis can play a major role in enabling this transition. Some of the test automation problems facing microprocessor companies today will be faced by the rest of the industry very soon. This paper summarizes the size, quality, design composition, and design methodology issues that present challenges for test synthesis of microprocessors
