In an integrated circuit, test signals are routed from test points through a hierarchy of distributed multiplexers to output pads. The multiplexers are distributed locally to various regions that are arranged in a hierarchy of regional levels. Thus, each test signal is routed to the locally distributed multiplexer, and only a portion of the test signals reach the top-level multiplexer.
