“The IJTAG standard makes it easier for engineers to characterise chips, as well as validate and test circuit boards because it standardises the method for accessing and operating on-chip instruments,” said Al Crouch, vice chairman of the IJTAG working group and one of ASSET’s chief technologist. “In doing so, IJTAG enables a lot of other features that are very valuable to the industry, including the portability and re-use of instrument IP from one chip design to the next and a dynamically scalable on-chip network for all of the IJTAG instrument IP. A detailed explanation of these and other IJTAG innovations hasn’t been available until now with this new eBook.” The new eBook is titled “IEEE 1687 IJTAG | The Future of Embedded Instruments.”
eBook explains latest IEEE IJTAG standard
The IEEE 1687 Internal JTAG (IJTAG) standard enhances the portability and re-use of embedded instrument intellectual property (IP) and defines a dynamically scalable on-chip network for instrumentation IP. A new eBook published by ASSET InterTech explains these innovations and others such as managing power domains with IJTAG, enabling instrument concurrence and retargeting test vectors.
