On using IEEE P1500 SECT for test plug-n-play
نویسندگان
چکیده
System chips are increasingly designed by embedding reusable cores. A core-based test strategy for such ICs is often attractive and sometimes even mandatory. IEEE P1500 SECT is a standard under development that standardizes a Core Test Language and a Core Wrapper, in order to facilitate plug-n-play core testing. In this paper, we describe how one standard supports both easy integration and interoperability as well as flexibility and scalability. Possible usage scenarios of the standard for core providers, core users, and EDA tool developers are sketched.

Towards a standard for embedded core test: an example
Integrated circuits are increasingly designed by embedding pre-designed reusable cores. IEEE P1500 Standard for Embedded Core Test (SECT) is a standard-under-development that aims at improving ease of reuse and facilitating interoperability with respect to the test of such core-based ICs, especially if they contain cores from different sources. This paper briefly describes IEEE P1500, and illus...

Continual advances in the manufacturing processes of integrated circuits provide designers the ability to create more complex and denser architectures and increased functionality on a single chip. The increased usage of embedded cores necessitates a core-based test strategy in which cores are also tested separately. The IEEE P1500 proposed standard for Embedded Core Test (SECT) is a standard un...

متن کاملAnalogue Core-Based Test-Pattern Generation*
– Core-based testing, which is described by the proposed IEEE standard P1500, is an effective test method for Systems-on-Chip (SOC) containing embedded cores. This test method is usable for all classes of digital cores and provides solutions that allow automatic identification and configuration of testability features in SOC containing embedded cores. In this moment, IEEE P1500 is restricted to...
