Abstract
A method of recording test information to identify a location of errors in Integrated Circuits (ICs) includes scanning a plurality of ICs with an input signal, each IC having a plurality of data locations and comparing an output response at each data location with an expected value for the data location. The method also includes storing an address in a buffer for each data location where the response at the data location does not equal the expected value corresponding to the data location.
