Octal SPI NOR Flash Support Now Available in XJTAG

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 [...]

New board to protect against current spikes

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. [...]

Pull Resistors

Many of us have been designing electronics for years and haven’t really considered pull up and down resistor values. We just use the same old values like 10K. With some new silicon the leakage currents are higher than we have been used too. This means the pull resistors might not being doing the task we [...]
