New PCB Demonstrates Advanced JTAG/boundary-scan Testing & Device Programming Capabilities

Key features of the JT 2155 are:
• ARM 7TDMI Core NXP processor
• Altera Cyclone 3 FPGA
• DDR2 memory block
• Serial I2C memory
• Analog to Digital Converter
• Accelerometer
• Touch screen controller

JTAG Technologies MD, Peter van den Eijnden, states: “The new training board has been built to allow us to show exactly what JTAG/boundary-scan is capable of in the second decade of the 21st century. Traditional IEEE Std. 1149.1 boundary-scan testing is well-known, but many of our leading-edge customers need to both learn about and see other JTAG applications. For example, some customers have been requesting demonstrations of JTAG testing using the processor’s core, while others have sought to embed at-speed ‘BIST engines’ into FPGAs. To profile these features you need a first class hardware platform as provided by the JT 2155.”
