Abstract
Wrapper cells for simultaneous testing of parent functional elements and child functional elements in a hierarchical SoC (System on Chip) provide a substantially reduced integrated circuit footprint by eliminating a multiplexer and providing simpler interconnections. Identical wrapper cells may be used for input and output data lines reducing the cost of the cell library.
