Reducing test-data volume and test-power simultaneously in LFSR reseeding-based compression environment

This paper presents a new test scheme based on scan block encoding in a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) reseeding-based compression environment.Meanwhile,our paper also introduces a novel algorithm of scan-block clustering.The main contribution of this paper is a flexible test-application framework that achieves significant reductions in switching activity during scan shift and the number of specified bits that need to be generated via LFSR reseeding.Thus,it can significantly reduce the test power and...
