One of the exciting new features in version 3.4 of XJTAG is a Waveform View that can display the JTAG chain data from XJAnalyser. The Waveform View can display the waveform traces from pins or buses in XJAnalyser in real time, providing useful debug information for your boards. […]
Transistors are one of the things we get asked about quite a bit: “How should I categorise the transistors in my project?” […]
In version 3.3.7 of XJTAG we have added some new usability improvements to the Layout Viewer tool. You can now right-click on any net or component in Layout Viewer to get a list of options related to that specific object. […]
‘Dynamic Chains’ is a term we’ve coined to describe a test system that has the ability to drive more that 1 JTAG chain configuration. This may be possible if it has multiple chains driven by different TMS or TCK pins, or a single chain that has multiple JTAG device variations (for example using a Scan Bridge). Before v3.3, XJTAG projects could only represent a single static JTAG chain. With our new functionality, multiple JTAG chain variations can be defined, set up and run within a single XJTAG project in a single test run. […]
Having lots of information is great, but sometimes the most difficult thing is displaying that data in a meaningful way. We have created two new information overlays for Layout Viewer, allowing you to visualise test coverage statistics or live pin data from Analyser on your board layout. […]
XJTAG is a great system for board designers and manufacturers, but people looking to repair boards often do not have netlists for those boards – something that until now has been essential to start an XJDeveloper project. […]
An interactive XJEase debugger was added in XJTAG 3.2. This can be used to help find problems in your XJEase code. […]
A new major version of XJTAG – version 3.2 – is now available from our website for users who are in maintenance. […]
The XJEase editors in XJDeveloper are now more intelligent – allowing you to write and navigate around your XJEase code faster. […]
We have had several customers having problems exporting ODB++ jobs from PADS, where all the net information is lost. In the ODB++ Export dialog, ensure that “Neutralize nets” is unchecked. […]
