Abstract :
This paper presents seven MCM designs, compares and contrasts the test approaches used in each design, and lists test solutions and recommendations that can be extended to future MCM technology. Important topics covered include design-for-testability, logic simulation, and fault diagnosis. Unique to this discussion are details concerning the refinement of test practices required to support product transition from prototype design to volume manufacturing
