XJTAG 4.0 introduced Optimised Scans, providing more options for configuring JTAG chains and improving scan speeds. To assist debugging any problems getting chains to run when deploying projects using these new features into a production environment, JTAG Chain debugger has also been given an update: if run in a system with an XJRunner licence, the [...]
XJTAG has included partial support for the standardised PCOLA/SOQ method of measuring test coverage for some time. The recent XJEase library update, library version 181, contains PCOLA/SOQ data for the test coverage of devices, completing this functionality. […]
Continuing from XJTAG 3.12’s Enhanced Signal Integrity Analysis feature (see here and here), XJTAG 3.13 brings more algorithms to help identify potential issues with the JTAG chain. This article describes more of the symptoms it can spot and their likely causes. […]
XJTAG 3.12 expanded the capability of the Signal Integrity Analysis in XJTAG tools, adding the ability to suggest certain causes of error. This post continues from the previous post on this subject, and describes further errors that XJTAG tries to identify. […]
In XJTAG 3.12 we have expanded the capabilities of our Signal Integrity testing. Rather than simply reporting any errors found in the attempted scans, it will now inspect those errors and suggest possible causes. […]
PCOLA/SOQ is a unified way to assess the test coverage offered by testing systems. Rather than directly considering what the test system can detect, it starts by considering everything that could be at fault in the device under test, and then scores how well the test system could identify such faults.
