Abstract :
This paper discusses the use of test access ports (TAPs) in systems-on-chip (SOC). Topics covered include: IEEE 1149.1, IEEE P1500 and associated standards; TAP controllers; TAP protocols; SOC multiple TAP domains; self-checking; embedded core test standards; core test wrapper architecture; and serial/parallel access test mechanisms.
