GOEPEL electronic’s 3D x-ray inspection system OptiCon X-Line 3D enables a safe quality control of BGA solder joints in the inline production process of single-sided and double-sided equipped PCBs within one test run. After image capturing from different directions and succeeding reconstruction, OptiCon X-Line 3D provides the opportunity to analyse board top and bottom sides layer by layer.

GOEPEL electronic announces the availability of a new option in its recently introduced EDA software TAPChecker. Multi-Chip Modules (MCM) and 3D chips are now supported, allowing testbench generation for VHDL, Verilog and STIL output formats. Users now have the opportunity to verify more complex designs with several Boundary Scan components or dies incl. interconnections by a comprehensive behaviour simulation.

GOEPEL electronic has developed special VarioTAP® IPs for testing VORTEX x86 chip series in cooperation with the Taiwanese Company DMP. The solution enables the utilization of dynamic processor emulation tests (PET) for fault detection and diagnosis at board and system level, additionally supporting embedded Flash BIOS programming.

GOEPEL electronic introduces PicoTAP, the world’s smallest JTAG/Boundary Scan Controller with single TAP interface. The new and extremely handy solution (matchbox size) has been designed for simple Boundary Scan test and programming tasks and for cost-critical applications throughout the entire product life cycle. If users want to upgrade their Boundary Scan applications at a later point in time, programs generated with PicoTAP are cross compa...

The newest version of GOEPEL electronic’s AOI system software features a special highlight. An integrated debug statistics captures AOI relevant variations in the production process and provides them for statistical evaluations. Hence, OptiCon series AOI systems enable a highly effective and convenient optimisation of generated test programs. Increased false call rates, originated in process tolerances or component variations, can be directly c...
