Zusammenfassung: | Methods, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for designing logic scan chains for matching gated portions of a clock tree. A clock tree includes a plurality of sections, each section including a gate receiving inputs of a global clock and a chain-specific clock control signal for a particular scan chain. A plurality of scan chains is defined, each including a plurality of latches. Each scan chain latch is connected to a corresponding chain-specific clock tree section. |
