There exists a lack of balance between design and testing topics in microelectronic curricula. However, boundary scan as a virtual probe presents an opportunity to teach testing and design for testability in such a curriculum. This effort is facilitated by the use of IEEE standards, universal acceptance in industry, and the availability of low cost test equipment. This paper introduces a library of boundary scan components based on the IEEE standards. The library is being verified using the AMI 0.5 micron 40 pin Tiny Chip VLSI device fabricated through MOSIS services.
