The electronica exhibition in Munich (November 13-16) will see JTAG Technologies will celebrate 25 years of developing, supplying and supporting world-class board (PCBA) test and programming solutions based on IEEE Std 1149.x . During this period there have been a great many technological advancements within niche areas of board test and programming and in Aerospace, Automotive, Defence, Telecoms and Datacoms where many of the company’s cus...

Modern vehicles can contain up to 50 microprocessors embedded within systems that range from engine control and ABS to climate control and instrument display panels. Since the consequences of failure can, in some cases, be catastrophic the requirements for assembly quality and subsequent reliability are paramount.

The latest version of its Visualizer graphical viewing tool for board (PCB) layouts and schematics will be showcased by JTAG Technologies at productronica in Munich (November 14-17). It allows users to assess fault coverage data and pin-point production test faults in a snap.  

Several hardware products for PCB testing and In-System [Device] Programming will premiered by JTAG Technologies at SMTA in Schaumburg, Illinois ( 19-20 Septeber). The company will also showcase its collaborative product with Altium – JTAG Maps plus various functional tester products.

A broad line of software and hardware tools for test preparation, test execution, test result analysis, and in‐system programming applications, will be demonstrated by JTAG Technologies at Autotestcon in Schaumburg, Illinois (September 14-17). A JTAG/boundary-scan test hardware interface product compatible with the MAC Panel mass interconnect system will make its debut at the show.

JTAG Technologies is excited to announce the immediate release of a JTAG/boundary-scan test hardware interface product compatible with the MAC Panel mass interconnect system. The JT 2147/eDAK is a multi-function signal conditioning module that allows ‘ideal world’ connections from JTAG Technologies PXI and PXIe DataBlasters to the MAC panel ‘Scout’ connection system.

JTAG Technologies wil show its new collaborative product with Altium – JTAG Maps plus the latest Fixture Product at the ‘ Electronics and Applications’ Show in Utrecht, Netherlands ( May 30 to June 1).  A large number of today's electronic designs feature JTAG/boundary-scan components that provide valuable test resources during hardware debug, manufacturing test and even depot repair.

The requirements for testing and programming boards built in the UK has evolved in the past ten years. Components, board functionality and device programming requirements have all altered the way we need to think about testing and programming today’s PCB assemblies.

  JTAG Technologies return to San Diego this year to premiere several new hardware products for PCB testing and In-System [Device] Programming and -to introduce their new collaborative product with Altium – JTAG Maps. 

JTAG Technologies, a specialist in JTAG/boundary-scan solutions for board testing and device programming have introduced their collaborative product with Altium – JTAG Maps. A large number of today's electronic designs feature JTAG/boundary-scan components that provide valuable test resources during hardware debug, manufacturing test and even depot repair.

On its return to SMTA JTAG Technologies will premiere several new hardware products for PCB testing and In-System [Device] Programming. The company will be displaying much of its current hardware range and will also offer live software demonstrations. Experienced JTAG test engineers will be on-hand to discuss practical test issues and advise on solutions.

A broad line of software and hardware tools including new boundary scan solutions will be showcased by JTAG Technologies at AUTOTESTCON in Anaheim ( September 12-15).  The JT 2147/VPC is a signal conditional module that allows ‘ideal world’ connections from JTAG Technologies PXI and PXIe DataBlasters to the Virginia Panel (VPC) connection system.

To meet a long-standing challenge, JTAG Technologies has announced a new family of hardware adapters specifically designed for testing of a variety of DIMM & SODIMM sockets (sizes and styles) using a JTAG/boundary-scan controller and supporting software. The problem of testing DIMM memory sockets has always been troublesome for test and production engineers using JTAG/boundary-scan systems.

Two hot avionic test topics will be discussed by JTAG Technologies at the Space Test Expo Pasadena (May 24-26). JTAG's TapCommunicator facilitates remot execution and diagnostics of boundary-scan applications, regardless of distance or environmental difficulties. The off-the-shelf system is based on a one gigabit  Ethernet connection (IEEE Std 802.3z) providing virtually unlimited range between the controller and target. 

The Space Test Pasadena Expo, taking place in Pasadena in May, will see JTAG Technologies discuss two hot avionic test topics with visitors to stand.

Two hot board test topics will be discussed and demonstrated by JTAG Technologies at the Embedded World 2016 exhibition in Nuremberg (Feb 23-25). The Design for Testability (DfT) is the ‘Cinderella’ of the design process. Overcoming this challenge is not as exciting as designing and proving a new solution. Yet, DfT/testability should not be overlooked.

Boundary Scan Market Supplier, JTAG Technologies will discuss Design for Testability (DfT) and Optimising ATE at the Embedded World show in Nuremberg (Feb23-25). The DfT challenge is the ‘Cinderella’ of the design process. Overcoming this challenge is not as exciting as designing and proving a new solution.

H/WExpo, a new UK conference for hardware development engineers has named JTAG Technologies the lead sponsor. The conference will cover such topics as board development, board bring up, hardware validation and production testing. H/WExpo will take place at Cambourne near Cambridge (April 27-28).  

By James Stanbridge, UK Sales Manager JTAG  Many test solutions will succeed or fail based on the levels of support given to them. This can mean support in terms of advice and expertise but also in terms of support products. Make it easy to add JTAG into your existing test regime and the market also becomes wider. With the introduction of the PIPs (Production Integration Packages) JTAG Technologies provided tools to allow easy integration...

The access to nodes of assemblies with ever increasing complexity is more and more difficult and results in reduced fault coverage. Test engineers worry about this daily. So JTAG Technologies’ motto for this productronica year reads: Optimise your ATE with JTAG Technologies Inside.
