Abstract

Various implementations described herein are directed to a scan cell. The scan cell may include an input phase having multiple multiplexers and a latch arranged to receive a scan input signal, a first address signal, and a second address signal and provide the scan input signal, the first address signal, or the second address signal based on a scan enable signal, a first clock signal, and a selection enable signal. The scan cell may include an output phase having multiple latches arranged to receive the scan input signal, the first address signal, or the second address signal from the input phase and provide the scan input signal, the first address signal, or the second address signal as a scan output signal based on a second clock signal and a third clock signal.
