New from Agilent Technologies is the x1149 boundary scan analyser, providing test coverage from prototyping to high-volume manufacturing.
Boundary scan has become an indispensable technology as engineers face increasing test access challenges. The x1149 is a versatile yet easy-to-use board test tool designed to help users through board design and validation, and re-using the same x1149 test in manufacturing.
Offering an intuitive interface, the analyser makes all information easily available on the screen with one mouse click.
The device is a tool for engineers to perform structural test such as opens and shorts tests on their PCBAs. It also performs in-system programming for devices such as FPGAs and CPLDs. Additionally, it programs PROM devices as well as executing memory verification tests on devices such as DDR SDRAMs.
Being fully compliant to the IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan standard, the x1149 is able to provide test coverage for much of a PCBA with boundary scan devices. In addition to that, the innovative Cover-Extend Technology enables test coverage to go beyond just IEEE 1149.1 devices – to also include connectors, sockets and non-IEEE1149.1 devices.
The instrument also supports the IEEE 1149.6 standard for AC-coupled bus lines. With an in-built scan chain linker, it has the ability to join multiple scan chains to maximise the coverage on the interconnect nodes between boundary scan devices.
