[background technology]
After chip was being produced and encapsulated, the signal on the pin of entire I chip, other all chip internal circuit signals all became unobservable signal, and entire chip becomes an invisible immesurable black box.Unusual or test when unusual at chip operation, owing to can't observe any internal signal, get rid of bug to the tester and caused huge difficulty.As shown in Figure 1; Chip internal circuit A, internal circuit B, internal circuit C, internal circuit D, internal circuit E; Its entire circuit encapsulates, and can only observe the input of circuit A and the output of circuit E, does not observe the RST of any other circuit A to other circuit between the E.If can there be means can in chip operation or test process, observe some key signals of chip internal, this will reduce the difficulty that the tester gets rid of the bug process greatly.
[summary of the invention]
One of technical matters that the present invention will solve is to provide a kind of circuit that is used for chip monitoring internal circuit signal, can in chip operation or test process, observe some key signals of chip internal.
One of technical matters of the present invention is achieved in that a kind of circuit that is used for chip monitoring internal circuit signal, comprising: a plurality of chip internal circuit to be measured, the objective circuit of said each chip internal circuit for testing; The output terminal of each chip internal circuit all is connected with a MUX;
MUX after being responsible for the signal of each chip internal circuit output selected, is transferred to a frequency dividing circuit with the signal of a certain chip internal circuit of selecting;
Frequency dividing circuit is connected with said MUX, is responsible for according to the straight-through control signal of chip exterior input MUX being transmitted next signal and carries out exporting after frequency division or straight-through the processing.
Two of the technical matters that the present invention will solve is to provide a kind of method that is used for chip monitoring internal circuit signal.
Two of technical matters of the present invention is achieved in that a kind of method that is used for chip monitoring internal circuit signal, comprises the steps:
The output terminal of step 1, chip internal circuit that each is to be measured is connected to MUX;
The present invention has following advantage: circuit of the present invention comprises: a plurality of chip internal circuit to be measured, and the output terminal of each chip internal circuit all is connected with a MUX; MUX after being responsible for the signal of each chip internal circuit output selected, is transferred to a frequency dividing circuit with the signal of a certain chip internal circuit of selecting; Frequency dividing circuit is connected with said MUX, is responsible for according to the straight-through control signal of chip exterior input MUX being transmitted next signal and carries out exporting after frequency division or straight-through the processing.Because common IO chip has certain frequency transmission scope, when frequency was too high, high-frequency signal can become very poor through signal quality behind the IO, so just can't learn the actual signal of chip internal circuit, therefore carried out divide operation through frequency dividing circuit.Circuit structure of the present invention is simple, and the circuit area loss power is low, and is easy to operate; Can in chip operation or test process, observe some key signals of chip internal.

See also shown in Figure 2ly, a kind of circuit that is used for chip monitoring internal circuit signal of the present invention comprises
A plurality of chip internal circuit to be measured (like chip internal circuit A, internal circuit B, internal circuit C, internal circuit D, the internal circuit E among Fig. 1), the objective circuit of said each chip internal circuit for testing; The output terminal of each chip internal circuit all is connected with a MUX;
MUX after being responsible for the signal of each chip internal circuit output selected, is transferred to a frequency dividing circuit with the signal of a certain chip internal circuit of selecting;
Frequency dividing circuit is connected with said MUX, and the straight-through control signal of being responsible for according to the chip exterior input (is carried out test phase in chip testing factory to chip, the signal of the test probe input in the test board that this straight-through control signal can be a chip testing machine; Test behind circuit board in chips welding; Should straight-through control signal can be one group of toggle switch input; The figure place of toggle switch equals to need the I/O figure place of control, each corresponding toggle switch position, input position) signal that the MUX transmission is come carries out frequency division or straight-through and handles back output; Because common IO chip has certain frequency transmission scope, when frequency was too high, high-frequency signal can become very poor through signal quality behind the IO, so just can't learn the actual signal of chip internal circuit, therefore carried out divide operation through frequency dividing circuit.
Wherein, said MUX is selected the I/O control signal according to the path of chip exterior input (in chip testing factory chip is carried out test phase, it can be the signal of the test probe input in the test board of chip testing machine that this path is selected the I/O control signal; Test behind circuit board in chips welding; It can be one group of toggle switch input that this path is selected the I/O control signal; The figure place of toggle switch need to equal the I/O figure place of control, each corresponding toggle switch position, input position) signal of each chip internal circuit output is selected.
As shown in Figure 3, be the inventive method schematic flow sheet.A kind of method that is used for chip monitoring internal circuit signal of the present invention comprises the steps:
The output terminal of step 1, chip internal circuit that each is to be measured is connected to MUX;
Wherein, In the said step 3 signal of chip internal circuit output being carried out frequency division handles back output and is specially: the signal of chip internal circuit output is exported through a fixing divider ratios; The acquisition mode of said fixing divider ratios is: in the signal of each chip internal circuit output of MUX, obtain one can arrive maximum clock frequency signal (be have in the signal of each chip internal circuit output the clock frequency of a signal maximum); Inquire about the maximum clock frequency that said chip can bear (being the maximum clock frequency that each chip production is come out all to have oneself and can be born) simultaneously; Round behind the maximum clock frequency that the maximum clock frequency of the signal of chip internal circuit output can be born divided by said chip, as said fixing divider ratios.
