The scan device for diagnosing a fault includes a scan partition including a plurality of scan chains which include path control scan flipflops connected to scan flipflops in cascade. In the scan partition, connection paths of the scan flipflops are controllable. The connection paths of the path control scan flipflops are controlled to detect a position of a fault such that a fault range in the scan partition is reduced to diagnose the fault.

A system-on-chip includes a first scan register being in a first core and being closest to an input port of the first core; an inverting circuit on a feedback path of the first scan register; a second scan register in the first core; and a logic circuit on a data path between the first scan register and the second scan register. In a test mode for an AT-SPEED test of the logic circuit, the inverting circuit generates test data by inverting scan data that are output from the first scan register, the first scan register stores the test data in response to a first pulse of a clock signal, the logic circuit generates result data based on the test data that are output from the first scan register, and the second scan register stores the result data in response to a second pulse of the clock signal.

Sensor data relating to operating conditions for an integrated circuit are read out through scan chains. Scan tests are run on an integrated circuit containing logic circuits that implement logic functions. The logic circuits are interconnected to form scan chains which are used in running the scan tests. The scan test data resulting from the scan tests is read out from the logic circuits through these scan chains. During the scan tests, sensor blocks capture measurements of the operating conditions for the logic circuits. The operating conditions may include process, voltage and/or temperature conditions, for example. The sensor blocks are also interconnected to form one or more scan chains, and sensor data produced from the captured measurements is read out through these scan chains concurrently with the read out of the scan test data.
