Boundary scan test solution boosts efficiency

XJTAG 3.9 boundary scan test software solution helps engineers develop better test programs and operate more efficiently. Product brings boundary scan’s power of individual pin control into a developer’s own test code, an editor that allows device models to be created that have configurable options for maximum reuse, and data-rich log files that are even easier for existing systems to analyze. API allows engineers to use XJAnalyser’s ability to manipulate the pins of JTAG-enabled ICs in their own software with almost no set up. This gives developers the ability to enhance non-JTAG tests: for example, a test routine can use the API to set control lines on a board to enable / disable individual power rails during testing; and to receive notifications if monitored pins change state. This provides engineers with much-needed flexibility when designing functional tests.
