Test Reset Sequence Editor Improvements
XJTAG 4.0 has significantly improved the user experience of creating and editing test reset sequences – the way in which JTAG devices are put into their JTAG mode. […]
PCOLA/SOQ Test Coverage in XJTAG’s XJEase library
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. […]
Switching Screens in XJDeveloper and XJInvestigator
In XJDeveloper and XJInvestigator, the ways in which you can interact with the list of screens have been improved. […]
New display modes on the Boards Screen
XJDeveloper 4.0 now has a brand new modern look to the Boards screen with 3 possible display modes: Tile mode, Row mode and Grid mode. The new interactive tile and row controls dedicate more screen space to each board so the data can be presented in a clearer, more readable display. […]
Setting TCK frequency
In previous versions of XJTAG the JTAG chains in the circuit were all operated at the same frequency. Because the Optimised Scans feature in v4.0 now allows a different frequency to be set for each chain, some changes to the user interface were required, and as a result the chain frequency settings in the user [...]
Optimised Scans
Optimised scans is a new feature added to XJTAG 4.0 and it provides a number of improvements aimed at increasing test speed. With Optimised Scans enabled, every JTAG TAP will scan data through at a separate frequency based on the capabilities of the JTAG devices in that TAP group. […]
Improvements to the Debug Connection Test Screen
XJTAG 3.13 brings with it an updated Debug Connection Test screen in XJDeveloper and XJInvestigator. The screen is primarily used to find problems with the setup which cause the Connection Test to exit with a broken chain error. […]
Variants Part 5 – Export Options
XJDeveloper provides a couple of options for exporting variants in XJPack files or as stand-alone XJDeveloper projects. When exporting a project with variants to an XJPack file, a Variants tab is displayed in the XJPack Dialog. This tab allows you to select any combination of the root project and variants to include in the file. [...]
Variants Part 4 – Setting Up the Test List
So, you’ve set up your variants with all the right BOM data and categorised all the devices (perhaps using the Suggest Variations wizard), now you need to actually test them! […]
Displaying Images in XJEase Dialogs
XJTAG 3.13 adds the ability to display images inside XJEase dialogs when running tests. To add an image to an XJEase dialog, simply pass the filename of the image on disk into the built-in XJEase function as an input parameter. The path may be absolute or relative to the XJDeveloper project file. [...]
