With XJTAG 3.11 we’ve made some improvements for working with projects that use the Dynamic Chains feature. Previously, the Analyser, Debug Connection Test, and the Chain Debugger feature would always use the default profile for your project. Using a different profile for these features would require you to manually change the default profile in XJDeveloper. Now, in XJDeveloper, the required profile may be selected independently on each screen, via a drop-down selection menu. […]
Historically we have provided three mechanisms for defining some form of constant or default values for a pin/net in XJDeveloper. These are BSDL compliance pins, bus disable values and constant pins, which allow you to define pins which XJTAG should keep in a constant state during automated testing, such as with Connection Test. However these approaches are profile- and subchain-agnostic. […]
With XJTAG 3.11 we’ve made a few improvements to the .NET XJRunner integration and our LabVIEW VIs. […]
This blog article is the second part of a three part series detailing the new Revisions feature in XJDeveloper 3.10. This article covers the setup process for a revisions project. […]
With the release of XJDeveloper 3.8 the former DFT Analysis screen has been renamed to Test Coverage and merged with the Functional Test screen. The Functional Tests page is now accessed through the new Functional Tests tab at the top of the screen. The chart view has also moved to a separate tab, but all tabs can be rearranged and docked to suit the users preference. Other noticeable changes include the addition of a net access column to the Summary Statistics page and the reorganisation of the options section, along with the addition of a few new features. […]
With XJDeveloper 3.7 the user now has more control over how unfitted devices are suggested. The Unfitted Rules Dialog allows for the specific suggestion methods to be enabled or disabled, allowing for more accurate unfitted device suggestions. […]
Previously, when importing BOM information users were limited to making assignments from a selection of pre-defined BOM fields. With XJDeveloper 3.7 users can now define custom BOM fields. […]
The Bill of Materials, or BOM provides valuable information about the components in a netlist. This information is often key for project setups and, when available, is used by XJDeveloper to make project setup suggestions. This information is often taken from a separate BOM file or straight from a board’s netlist. With XJDeveloper 3.7 the volume of BOM data extracted for many of the netlist formats has increased. […]
From XJDeveloper 3.6 a new BOM data type is available in the BOM Import dialog, the “Unfitted” device field. Any devices with an entry in a column assigned to this are suggested under the “Suggested Unfitted Devices” category on the Categorise Devices screen. […]
