Abstract :
On-chip test support circuitry has been developed for a 32b multichip VLSI computer. The test support consists of a test PLA and a 45MHz diagnostic interface port that multiplexes up to 16 serial scan paths. While requiring less than 10% of chip area and power, it supports testing, characterization and diagnosis from chip to system level.
