Silicon evaluation of scan patterns, targeting realistic bridges, for a high performance microprocessor is presented. The practicality of generating realistic bridge patterns is demonstrated. Silicon data, with and without functional fails, and in the presence of n-detect tests are presented. Data points to the value of and efficiency of bridge patterns. Data also shows the advantage of using supplemental bridge patterns when compared with supplemental stuck-at patterns.
