Methods and systems for testing devices in a scan chain are described. A first device for test and a second device for test are coupled in the scan chain. A signal selector is coupled between the first and second devices. The signal selector selects between an output signal that is output from the first device and a bypass signal that has bypassed the first device.
A first scan data is received at a first scan chain and a representation of the first scan data is subsequently provided from the first scan chain to a second scan chain to test the second scan chain in response to a first value at a first bond pad. The first scan chain is bypassed to receive the first scan data at the second scan chain in response to a second value at the first bond pad.
