John,
BIST and other Design for Test insertion tools are available from several
vendors (LogicVision, Mentor, . . . ). If you're an IBM Microelectronics
customer, IBM's TestBench offers DFT insertion tools and consultation
services (http://www.chips.ibm.com:80/services/testbench/). The DFT/BIST
IP, tools and consultation services from these vendors aren't free, but
they can provide proven test solutions to speed your time to market.
