SEGGER introduces compact version of J-Link for verification & test beds
The compact variants of the J-Link models are designed for minimal footprint and to mount securely and unobtrusively into development or end user equipment. Two mounting holes and small size make it simple to place the J-Link into existing equipment housings or to reserve space for direct-to-PCB mounting. The compact J-Link models enable fixed setups to be deployed using identical features, behavior and specifications of the corresponding market-leading J-Link models.
Typical applications for the J-Link Compact models are test fixtures that are used to automate firmware verification during development. The J-Link Compact models can also be installed into development or evaluation setups for long-term test or integrated firmware reflash in the field. It is also possible to install the J-Link Compact as a module in end equipment to reduce the number of tools that service technicians must carry around.
"We are excited to open up new application fields for the J-Link by adding the compact form factor. Engineers responsible for verification, validation and test often require automated solutions, that can easily be fitted into a fixture. The J-Link Compact models offer that exactly," says Alex Gruener, CTO of SEGGER Microcontroller.
