Abstract

Partial-Scan testing of an integrated circuit (10) having a Boundary-Scan architecture (18) is accomplished by way of a Partial-Scan controller (36) contained within the integrated circuit. In response to control signals generated by Boundary-Scan architecture (18), the Partial-Scan controller (36) generates a set of Partial-Scan control signals for causing the integrated circuit to accomplish Partial-Scan testing. In this way, the Partial-Scan control signals necessary to accomplish Partial-Scan testing are generated internally, rather than requiring a separate set of input pins to receive the Partial-Scan control signals from an external source.
