Dear All,

I am using RTL Compiler for scan synthesis.Even though i don't get any DFT violation, i am unable to connect the scan chains,I am getting following warning:

Warning : Could not connect scan chains. [DFT-415]
: No registers are available to connect into scan chains.
Mapping DFT logic introduced by scan chain connection...

Warning : Non-scan flop conversion to scan is done during incremental synthesis. The following register will not be included on a chain. [DFT-512]
: DFF_148


My tcl script is like this (without set library portion):

Kindly help.

Possibly your design is not scan mapped. Pls set the dft_scan_map_mode attribute to force_all.
This will map all flops in the design to scan mode.
