Disclosed are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for partitioning-based Test Access Mechanisms (TAM). Test response data are captured by scan cells of a plurality scan chains in a circuit under test and are compared with test response data expected for a good CUT to generate check values. Based on the check values, partition pass/fail signals are generated by partitioning scheme generators. Each of the partitioning scheme generators is configured to generate one of the partition pass/fail signals for one of partitioning schemes. A partitioning scheme divides the scan cells into a set of non-overlapping partitions. Based on the partition pass/fail signals, a failure diagnosis process may be performed. |
