Boundary-Scan Tools Keep on Developing



Eindhoven, the Netherlands - JTAG Technologies is delighted to announce further advances in the boundary-scan tool arena with the latest release of its development and hardware debug tool, JTAG ProVisionT V1.8, that features on the latest tools CD (release 16 - May 2010).

Widely acknowledged as the World's leading development tool for all boundary-scan applications, ProVision combines advanced automation with the level of control and precision that engineers demand when creating test programs and in-system programming (ISP) routines for PLDs, FPGAs, flash memories, serial PROMs and other devices.

Enhancements to the ProVision version (V1.8) shipping on CD16:-

  • New pin-level ActiveTest - an interactive cluster test generator

  • Enhanced NAND flash ISP program generator;

  • 'Buzz' - the quick and easy continuity test module for checking hidden open circuits

  • Built-in test debug capabilities for Symphony supported In-Circuit Testers and Flying-Probe Testers

  • Support for 'private' and seldom-used JTAG instructions with the JFT
    (Python) script routines;

  • Multi-board, and scan bridge support for JFT(Python) script routines; and

    Expanded ProVision model library, now containing models for more than 7,500 non-boundary-scan device families, covering more than 78,000 different devices.

    Peter van den Eijnden, JTAG Technologies' General Manager comments: "The enhancements to ProVision represent considerable value-added to the user and once again endorse our commitment to providing the best quality software tools at the most competitive prices. As usual, many of the new features are at the direct request of our customers and have been incorporated promptly and diligently."
