Eindhoven, The Netherlands, December 2011 ,- JTAG Technologies, market leader in boundary-scan solutions will showcase these latest hard- and software solutions at Embedded World Show in Nuremberg, February – 28 to 30th 2012, booth 4-619.
The Latest Tool from JTAGLive Family
AutoBuzz is a totally unique new tool that effectively learns a connectivity signature of all boundary-scan parts within a design from only the BSDL models of those parts. By expanding on the seek and discover mode of BuzzPlus, AutoBuzz automatically gathers the circuit data of a known good board and then performs a full connectivity compare against the faulty circuit.
AutoBuzz supports just two simple operating modes: Learn and Compare. With AutoBuzz in Learn mode a ‘known good’ sample PCB is initially scanned to establish a reference connectivity map. Suspected faulty boards can then be scanned by AutoBuzz in Compare mode, and a comparison is automatically made of their connectivity maps. Differences between the two maps are highlighted to indicate possible faults such as interconnect short-circuits, open-circuits or ‘stuck-at’ faults.
Since the user requires no boundary-scan technical knowledge and with only a basic scan chain input needed, AutoBuzz is the perfect tool for repair and rework technicians, especially when design data is missing or incomplete.
Our new quantum step in training and demonstration equipment – JT2155 Training Board
In co-operation with the Benelux regional representative of Altium – Transfer BV – and hardware development consultancy – DsignWorx BV – the new JT 2155 training board has been devised to demonstrate all the latest features and test techniques available to users of JTAG Technologies’ ProVision & JTAGLive application development systems. For Altium users the design serves as an example of how to adapt the feature-rich Nano board into a realistic custom design. Key features of the JT 2155 are:
- ARM 7TDMI Core NXP processor
- Altera Cyclone 3 FPGA
- DDR2 memory block
- Serial I2C memory
- Analog to Digital Converter
- Accelerometer
- Touch screen controller
The new training board has been built to allow to show exactly what JTAG/boundary-scan is capable of in the second decade of the 21st century. Traditional IEEE Std. 1149.1 boundary-scan testing is well known, but many leading edge technicians need to both learn about and see other JTAG applications.
