DFT Challenges in Next Generation Multi-media IP

Multi-media based applications have increased immensely in the last few years. The need to have better video quality, higher recording and playback time, more video channels and faster time to market (TTM) requires DFT solutions that use core-based testing to allow concurrent IP and SOC development, scalable to support multiple technologies and eases the development of timing constraints. This paper describes the challenges and solutions used to address them.
