  • Abstract
    When testing the interconnect structures on a board, test programmers sometimes ask, How can I control the test pattern generation process to avoid ground bounce problems during Extest mode? Those wishing to satisfy a simultaneously-switching-outputs constraint will find several new solutions in this article.
