Summary:Integrated circuits are increasingly designed by embedding
pre-designed reusable cores. IEEE P1500 Standard for Embedded Core Test
(SECT) is a standard-under-development that aims at improving ease of
reuse and facilitating interoperability with respect to the test of such
core-based ICs, especially if they contain cores from different sources.
This paper briefly describes IEEE P1500, and illustrates through a
simplified example its dual compliance concept, its Scalable Hardware
Architecture, and its Core Test Language. This paper provides a
preliminary, unapproved view on IEEE P1500. The standard is still under
development, and this paper only reflects the view of five active
participants of the Standardization Committee on its current
status
