Phase 1: RTL DFT Guidelines

• Avoid asynchronous resets that are difficult to initialize during scan.
• Avoid gated clocks unless they have a test mode override (TMO) to bypass the gate during shift.
• Provide observability points for deep combinatorial logic.

Official Problems & References: Each chapter in the Abramovici text concludes with a comprehensive set of problems and references for further study. Avoid asynchronous resets that are difficult to initialize

This book is a definitive reference for test engineers and advanced students, covering: Official Problems & References : Each chapter in

• Components: TAP controller, instruction register, boundary scan register (cells at each I/O pin).
• Interconnect test: EXTEST instruction drives values through output cells and captures at input cells on adjacent chip.
