Core test wrappers and test access mechanisms (TAMs) are importantcomponents of a system-on-chip (SOC) test architecture.Wrapper/TAM co-optimization is necessary to minimize the SOC testingtime. Most prior research in wrapper/TAM design has addressedwrapper design and TAM optimization as separate problems, therebyleading to results that are sub-optimal. We present a fast heuristictechnique for wrapper/TAM co-optimization, and demonstrate itsscalability for several industrial SOCs. This extends recent work onexact methods for wrapper/TAM co-optimization based on integer linearprogramming and exhaustive enumeration. We show that the SOCtesting times obtained using the new heuristic algorithm are comparableto the testing times obtained using exact methods. Moreover,more than two orders of magnitude reduction can be obtained in theCPU time compared to exact methods. Furthermore, we are nowable to design efficient test access architectures with a larger numberof TAMs.
