Add Output Masks

Tools Supported: FastScan and FlexTest

Scope: Setup mode

Usage

ADD OUtput Masks primary_output...

Description

Ignores any fault effects that propagate to the primary output pins you name.

The tool uses primary output pins as the observe points during the fault detection process. When you mask a primary output pin, you inform the tool to mark that pin as an invalid observation point during the fault detection process. This command allows you the ability to flag primary output pins that do not have strobe capability. The tool classifies the faults whose effects only propagate to that observation point as Atpg_Untestable (AU).

Arguments

primary_output

A required repeatable string that specifies the name of the primary output pin you want to mask.

Examples

The following example specifies the primary output pins that will not have the strobe capability on the hardware tester:

add output masks qb1 qb2 qb3
