Abstract
Systems and methods to test processor cores of a multi-core processor microchip are provided. Comparison circuitry may be configured to compare data output from processor cores of a microchip. An encoding module may be configured to encode received data by initially assigning binary bit values to the processor cores. Based on at least one of a number of the processor cores and a first binary bit value, a first additional binary bit may be added to the first binary bit value. The first binary bit value may be assigned to a first processor core of the plurality of processor cores.
