Abstract
A soft-function trigger state machine includes state machine logic defined to use a scan-in waveform to sample a scan-clock waveform to obtain a sampled data pattern. The state machine logic is defined to compare the sampled data pattern to a soft action pattern to determine whether the sampled data pattern matches the soft action pattern. The state machine logic is also defined to trigger an action associated with the soft action pattern when the sampled data pattern matches the soft action pattern.
