IEEE P1581 has undergone significant improvement since its introduction. This paper explains the choice of simple, low overhead solutions the proposed standard provides in overcoming one of Boundary Scan's greatest bottlenecks: test of complex memory devices. Design for Testability guidelines are provided to allow board designers and test engineers to take full advantage of this new test technique.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
