DFT strategy for Intel microprocessors
Wayne Needham, N.S. Gollakota · 2002
This paper describes the progress in DFT techniques applied to Intel's X86-family microprocessors. The approach described here shows a progressive approach to increasing the level of DFT with increasing size and complexity of the design. Implementation of DFT is based on the needs of a given functional block and that of the overall chip. Test generation strategy to augment the coverage provided by DFT features is highlighted.
