Read More »New eBook Shows How to Avoid Conflict Among Embedded Test Access Ports when Integrating SoC IP Blocks
Richardson, TX- – Cores and other blocks of intellectual property (IP) often feature a test access port (TAP). When multiple such IP blocks are integrated into a system-on-a-chip (SoC), their TAPs become embedded. Such embedded TAPs (eTAP) are prone to conflict with each other, which can prevent engineers from accessing IP blocks during SoC debug, validation or test. A new eBook from ASSET...
