Add Display Scanpath

 

 

Add Display Scanpath

Tools Supported: DFTInsight, FastScan, and FlexTest

FastScan Scope: All modes

FlexTest Scope: Setup and Drc modes

Prerequisites: This command can only operate on the flattened simulation model of the design. The design flattening happens when you first attempt to exit Setup mode, or when you issue the Flatten Model command.

Usage

ADD DIsplay Scanpath chain_name [SCI begin_cell_position] [SCO end_cell_position]

DFTInsight Menu Path:

Display > Additions: ScanPath

Description

Displays all the associated gates between two positions in a scan chain.

The Add Display Scanpath command creates a netlist containing either all the gates or a subset of gates in a scan chain. If you already have invoked DFTInsight on a flattened design, the viewer automatically displays the graphical representation of the netlist and also marks key instances in the schematic view. Otherwise (if licensed), DFTInsight is automatically invoked on the netlist.

You can specify a particular subset of a scan chain by indicating the beginning cell position and the ending cell position within the scan chain. By default, the command uses the scan chain primary input (SCI) and the scan chain primary output (SCO).

You can display a list of all the currently defined scan chains by using the Report Scan Chains command.
