Abstract
Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure include apparatus, methods, and computer-accessible medium for a toggle-masking procedure configured to mask, e.g., most or all the unknown x's and minimizing the over-masked known bits for clustered distribution of unknown bits. According to certain exemplary embodiments, it is possible to obtain previous masking information regarding the scan chain(s) associated with a previous cycle, and mask the scan chain(s) for a present cycle based on the previous masking information.
