One of the new features in XJDeveloper 4.2 allows you to limit the capabilities of individual JTAG-capable pins by applying Do Not Read, Do Not Drive and Do Not Read or Drive restrictions. Previously this kind of change would require you to edit the BSDL file, now such restrictions can be included as part of your [...]
XJTAG 4.2 adds support for the XJLink-PF20, a new 4-TAP JTAG controller. The XJLink-PF20 has two 20-way connectors, each with its own voltage domain. […]
A new version of XJTAG – version 4.2 – has been released, containing updates and new features. It is now available from our website for users who are in maintenance. […]
XJTAG 4.1.3 introduces FOREACH loops to iterate over all elements of an array in XJEase. […]
XJTAG recently released XJTAG 4.1.3 with feature enhancements to XJDeveloper, XJAnalyser and XJInvestigator, along with an updated XJEase library – version 194. […]
With the release of XJEase Library build 192 we included a notable update to the SPI NOR Flash test files: support for Octal SPI NOR Flash devices[1], also known as OSPI or OPI. Octal SPI NOR Flash is a variant of SPI NOR Flash that supports the use of an 8-bit bidirectional I/O bus for [...]
XJTAG 4.1 introduces enhancements to the ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD) protocol to return protocol operation acknowledgement responses in XJEase. […]
With the release of the XJLink-PF40 and XJTAG 4.1, setting up your pin mapping might have just got a bit more complicated. The XJLink-PF40 supports twice as many TAPs (8) and has twice as many I/O pins (40) as the XJLink2 so there can be more work involved in setup. Luckily, XJDeveloper 4.1 contains some [...]
A new version of XJTAG – version 4.1 – has been released, containing updates and new features. It is now available from our website for users who are in maintenance. […]
One potential cause of damage to an XJLink2 JTAG controller is transient current spikes caused when a board is first powered on and the decoupling capacitors are charged. We’ve talked about this issue on the blog before and shown that, unfortunately, even a very brief spike in current can cause damage to the controller. [...]
