Scan chain Reordering

  • The scan Flip flop placements may create lengthier routes if the consecutive flops in scan chain placement far due to a functional requirement
  • In this case, the Place and Route tool can reconnect the scan chain to make routing easier
  • The scan chain reordering is performed at Placement 
  • scan chain can reduce the wire length and congestion
  • scan chain will improve  the routability
  • scan chain can performed based on their physical location of the flops
Benefits with the Scan chain reordering:
  • Lesser the length will reduce the resistance and capacitance
  • Lower values of  R and C will improve the timing
  • It will reduce the congestion
