This paper describes a Hybrid DFT (H-DFT) architecture for low-cost, high quality structural testing in the high volume manufacturing (HVM) environment. This structure efficiently combines several testing and test data compression approaches to enable application of a huge amount of ATPG and Weighed Random-BIST (WR-BIST) patterns. Results obtained from the application of the H-DFT technique to industrial designs demonstrate significant savings in test cost in terms of test data volume and test application time without compromising test quality. Implementation of the H-DIT architecture on Intel ASIC and microprocessor designs are described.
