We are in the final stages of a major overhaul of the XJEase device file library and we expect to release it in the next few days. […]
This post is an update to the original “Debugging Connection Test (part 1)” post – over time several features in XJTAG have changed considerably and may be hard to find by following my original post. […]
Recently one of our newer customers started on their first solo board setup. They had previously seen XJTAG demonstrated and had also had their initial board setup done by an XJTAG engineer. When they came to setting a board up for themselves they tried to follow the path that the XJTAG engineer had talked them [...]
A new major version of XJTAG – version 3.4 – is now available from our website for users who are in maintenance. […]
Transistors are one of the things we get asked about quite a bit: “How should I categorise the transistors in my project?” […]
If you use the BSDL library, a new option will now appear (from XJTAG version 3.3.7) when you categorise a JTAG device in XJDeveloper by selecting it from the library - it will offer to copy the BSDL file into another folder (defaulting to your local project directory).

We have been starting to see questions about support for DDR4 SDRAM devices, which are gradually becoming available. We have published a guide to using JTAG to test DDR4 memory on the XJTAG website. It contains a link to slides used at a recent presentation on the subject. Support for DDR4 devices will be coming soon [...]
This post is to clarify how to specify terminations to a reference voltage in XJTAG. There are two special classes of passive device in XJTAG which represent termination resistors. […]
