Have You Encountered Any Error/Warning During Scan Insertion in Genus? Do You Want to Resolve It?

14 Jun 2021 • 1 minute read

Design for Test (DFT) techniques provide measures to test the manufactured device for quality and coverage comprehensively. You might encounter Error or Warning messages while inserting scan during the synthesis stage.

 We know it is a little tricky to resolve DFT Errors and Warning. But don't worry!! We can help provide guidance. For example, the Error or Warning could be related to checking DFT rules, reporting, defining and connecting scan chain, etc.

Are you excited to explore the solution?

There is a ONE-STOP solution for several DFT Errors/Warnings in the form of videos on " Troubleshooting Common Scan Issues."; refer to the channel videos on https://support.cadence.com (Cadence login required).

This channel contains videos that troubleshoot common scan issues in Genus Synthesis Solution. The videos cover various Warning and Error messages which appear while running scan insertion flow in Genus. It shows how to debug and fix those violations.
