Hi,
I have a dft setup where there are 8 blocks of logic to be scanned.
I was thinking of using
define_test_mode A0 -usage -scan -encoding {TEST[3] 0 TEST[2] 0 TEST[1] 0 TEST[0] 1}
. . .
and create the 8 test modes.
These 8 blocks will have one common scan input and one common scan output.
The output mux to scan out is already created in RTL.
Do I need to still define these 8 test modes and define 8 different test protocols
to use to build the scan chains ?
I have a dedicated scanclk input to each block and I have already inserted many muxes to bypass resets and gate clocks.
I just want to replace the scan flops and connect the output of the scan chain to the input of the mux.
What's the recommendations and any good small examples like even for 2 test modes ?
Thanks,
David
