XJTAG 2.7: Improved code editors
We are always listening to customers about where they feel the tools could be improved. For XJTAG 2.7 we took this feedback on board and improved the user interface of the code editors in XJDeveloper. These are on the Test Device Files screen and the Circuit Code Files screen. […]
Schematic Viewer
From version 2.7 onwards XJTAG includes an integrated Schematic Viewer in XJDeveloper and XJRunner. If you have your boards’ schematics in PDF format you can take advantage of this new feature. […]
Automatic suggestion of JTAG chains
To help get your tests up and running more quickly and easily, version 2.7 of XJDeveloper has a new feature which can make suggestions for the JTAG chains in your project. […]
Layout Viewer
If your project uses an ODB++ netlist, then you can take advantage of the Layout Viewer in both XJDeveloper and XJRunner. Layout Viewer uses the layout information in the netlist to allow you to visualise the physical location of components, pins and nets on a board. This is especially useful for visualising errors from the connection test to guide you towards the most likely location of a fault on a board. […]
Device Library
Version 2.6 of XJDeveloper has two exciting new features that make developing your projects easier – a library of definitions for devices and a “suggest categorisation” feature. […]
Categorising Devices as Logic in XJDeveloper
This post outlines how to categorise a device as a logic device in XJDeveloper and explains some of the useful features. […]

This post introduces the new DFT reports which are generated from the DFT analysis data. This is a feature introduced in XJTAG version 2.4. […]
Design for Test Analysis in XJDeveloper 2.4 – Part 1
The DFT Analysis screen in XJTAG version 2.4 has been completely redesigned to allow you to assess the test coverage of your circuit design more easily and in a more efficient way. This post highlights the most important new features. […]
Logic in XJTAG – capabilities and limitations
We see a lot of logic components used on boards that come through our office. Most often we see buffers, bus transceivers and devices of that nature, but also plenty of the usual discrete logic chips – simple gates, decoders, encoders etc. […]
