Abstract
This disclosure is concerned with suppressing spurious signals generated during the in-circuit testing of circuit components, and which spurious signals may interfere with test signals being forced at selected nodes of the circuit that are inputs to components being tested and wherein such spurious signals may be routed via certain of the other circuit components, by automatically inhibiting either potential transmission of spurious signals by applying specific signals to components identified by analysis as normally feeding or processing input signals to the component(s) under test, or automatically inhibiting all inhibitable input parts of all components identified as those capable of passing such spurious signals to the input of the component(s) under test.
