XJTAG 4.3 adds support for using some devices produced by Future Technology Devices International (FTDI) as JTAG controllers in place of an XJLink. There is no additional licence required to use FTDI devices, and therefore existing customers can utilise this new functionality immediately in new projects if suitable hardware is available. […]
XJTAG 4.2 introduces three new values that can be set for either Constant Pins or XJEase device file Disable Values. It also renames the long-standing value “Input” to now be called “Excluded”. […]
Microsoft is ending mainstream support for Windows 10 on October 14th, 2025. This means that after this date updates to fix security issues will not generally be available and so machines running Windows 10 will be more vulnerable to security risks and viruses. […]
XJTAG 4.1 can automatically generate test reset sequences for many more hardware designs than previous versions. Previously, if a JTAG device had an nTRST pin that needed resetting between tests, you had to manually create a sequence with a waveform like the following: […]
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. […]
In XJDeveloper and XJInvestigator, the ways in which you can interact with the list of screens have been improved. […]
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 [...]
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. […]
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. [...]
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! […]
