Boundary Scan Software Platform includes smart ISP tools.
September 4, 2008 -
SYSTEM CASCON(TM) v4.4.2 and later is available with intelligent tools suite for flexible in-system Flash programming (ISP). It supports discrete Flash components as well as universal programming of MCUs with embedded on-chip Flash, where programming speed is limited only by target flash characteristics. Users can define optimal programming and test strategy for each kind of Flash application implemented on basis of unified JTAG/Boundary Scan system.

Boundary Scan Software Platform SYSTEM CASCON(TM) Offers New Generation of Flash Programming Tools
GOEPEL electronic, world-class vendor of JTAG / Boundary Scan solutions compliant with IEEE Std. 1149.x, introduces a new generation of intelligent tools for flexible in-system Flash programming (ISP) within the Boundary Scan software platform SYSTEM CASCON(TM).
The new tool suite has an unrivalled automation level and supports, in addition to discrete Flash components, the universal programming of micro controllers (MCU) with embedded on-chip Flash. In connection with respective high-performance hardware, such as SCANFLEX®, the programming speed is only limited by the target flash characteristics.
"With our new system tools we have completely closed the gap between classic Boundary Scan testers and conventional JTAG flash programmers", Thomas Wenzel, GOEPEL electronic's managing director, gladly announces. "Now our customers are able to define their individual ideal programming and test strategy for each kind of Flash application, regardless of whether it is embedded in a system-on-chip (soc), single chip or complex Flash cluster - implemented on basis of a unified JTAG/Boundary Scan system."
A brand-new ISP tool is the Automatic On-Chip Flash Generator. It is based on the revolutionary streaming technology VarioTAP®, introduced earlier this year. The tool is able, for instance, to program MCUs with integrated Flash via the JTAG TAP (Test Access Port). Thereby, required information is read from a respective VarioTAP PI model, and an executable script is generated in the native system language CASLAN. The Flash size is unlimited. The new Generator also supports Multi-TAP/Multi-Core applications as well as Scan Router. That's why on-chip Flash programming procedures can easily be combined with other ISP and test routines to a complete sequence.
Also the Automatic Flash Program Generator (AFPG) for Flash programming via Boundary Scan was enhanced. The most significant innovation is the ability to identify and program Flash clusters, isolated in terms of access, by non Boundary Scan buffers. Several buffers may be cascaded within the circuitry.
As another innovation, a graphical input of the required sequence of single procedures such as blank check, delete, program, verify etc. incl. handling in the case of error is integrated. The tools are intuitively operated by a flow chart oriented presentation and their establishing per drag & drop. At the same time, they enable a high effectivity.
The new IEEE1149.1 tools are integrated into SYSTEM CASCON(TM) from version 4.4.2 onwards, and are activated per license manager. The new release is already shipping and is valid for users with valid software maintenance contract. The new tools are fully supported by controllers of the ScanBooster® and the entire SCANFLEX® hardware platform.
