The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “A non-volatile computer data storage programming system includes a scan chain modification configured to receive a default model defining a scan chain of an industry standardized device. A controller is in signal communication with the scan chain modification system, and is configured to program an industry standardized device. A non-volatile computer data storage device is configured to receive data from the industry standardized device. The scan chain modification system modifies the default model to generate a new model including a reduced scan chain, and the controller programs the industry standardized device based on the new model such that the industry standardized device is programmed with the reduced scan chain.”

The patent application was filed on October 3, 2019 (16/592,053).
