Abstract
A system, method, and circuits for processing a boundary scan result involve receiving the boundary scan result as input data to a comparator, and performing a comparison based on the input data and a selected reference level to form a comparison result. A capture device that stores the comparison result is set, reset or write enabled based on the comparison result and a reference value indicating which of two reference levels is the selected reference level. Additionally, a determination is made whether to change the selected reference level for a subsequent comparison based on the comparison result, the reference value, and the output of the capture device.
