Placing an Infineon Aurix™ TriCore™ TC3xx Microcontroller into Boundary Scan Mode
Some devices need more than a standard Test Reset sequence to enter the state when they behave as described in their BSDL file and boundary scan can run. Infineon’s Aurix TriCore TC3xx microcontroller family is one such group. […]
XJTAG statement about log4j vulnerability
There has been a lot of press about the recently discovered vulnerabilities in the Apache log4j software component, and companies are starting to do due diligence about whether they are exposed to related exploits due to its inclusion in software that they own. XJTAG would like therefore to reassure customers that no XJTAG software uses (or has ever used) log4j [...]
Installing XJTAG when Microsoft Defender Controlled Folder Access is enabled
Microsoft Defender has an optional feature called Controlled Folder Access, which is designed to protect sensitive folders from being modified by malicious software. This feature is not switched on by default and is only available if you are using Microsoft Defender Antivirus or Microsoft Defender for Endpoint; if you’re using a third party antivirus solution then the feature is not [...]
Viewing Diffs When Updating Library Files
A diff is a comparison showing differences between the contents of files. This article is specifically about displaying the difference between the a project’s current version of an XJEase library file, and the latest version of that file available from the library that it belongs to. […]
Expanded Profile selection in XJDeveloper and XJAnalyser
With XJTAG 3.11 we’ve made some improvements for working with projects that use the Dynamic Chains feature. Previously, the Analyser, Debug Connection Test, and the Chain Debugger feature would always use the default profile for your project. Using a different profile for these features would require you to manually change the default profile in XJDeveloper. Now, in XJDeveloper, the required [...]
Configurable Oscillator for XJLink2
In XJTAG 3.11 we’ve added configurable oscillator functionality which can be used on any XJLink2-based controller. The oscillator operates independently of TCK, so can run when TCK is not running and can be set to any frequency from 10 kHz to 166 MHz (in 10 kHz increments) regardless of the current TCK frequency.
