摘要
This paper presents new DfT modules required to use networks-on-chip as test access mechanism. We demonstrate that the proposed DfT modules can be also implemented on top of low cost networks-on-chip, i.e. network's without complex services. The DfT modules, which consist of test wrappers and test pin interfaces, are designed such that both the tester and CUTs transport test data unaware of the network. We analyse the DfT modules in terms of silicon area and test time, considering different network and test configurations.
