Abstract
An embedded test, chip design utility is an ease-of-use utility for assisting a circuit designer in quickly implementing a circuit embedded test design flow. Using the utility, a designer transforms a design netlist to include embedded test structures. The utility automatically builds a workspace containing a predetermined repository structure and design environment, generates control files for executing design automation tools that operate within the design flow, and encapsulates the data so as to be self-contained and easily transferable to other design teams.
