Question

Figure 2 outlines an Input / Output (I/O) port used for boundary scan testing of integrated circuits. Provide a research-based report (minimum 2000 words) that considers the following points as

a minimum: (25 marks) Provide an introduction to boundary scan in your report, consider: what is boundaryscan, how it functions, where boundary scans are used, why they are important, andthe purpose of the various inputs to the boundary scan cell. Provide references whereappropriate. With reference to TDI and TDO explain how these ports may be arranged around apiece core logic to allow boundary scan testing Explain how the I/O ports may be configured as an input port with input datascanned into the cell for testing the core logic of an integrated circuit. Explain how the I/O port may be configured as an output port for capturing datafrom the core logic of an integrated circuit. Explain how these ports may be arranged for testing printed circuit board interconnections between pins of an integrated circuit.6.
