"This is certainly a great honour and a testament to the hard work of our product developers", said Reg Waller, European Director for Asset InterTech.

"Over the years we've remained dedicated to doing just one thing, providing the most powerful yet easy boundary scan system in the industry".

"Because of this focus on JT, the ScanWorks boundary scan environment has become a solid foundation for a number of related test and programming technologies, enhancing the value of ScanWorks to its users".

ScanWorks is currently used by leading electronics companies such as Cisco, Lucent Technologies, Agilent, BAE, Hewlett-Packard, Ericsson, Alcatel, SBS, Intel, Raytheon, Solectron, Rockwell Collins, EMC and many others.

ScanWorks for High-Speed Buses is the first and only boundary scan test platform capable of performing design validation and interconnect tests on high-speed (1 to 10Gbit/s) buses from the same platform as traditional static JT tests.

Central to ScanWorks for High-Speed Buses is the integration of tools for Intel IBIST (interconnect built-in self test), that company's next-generation embedded test technology, as well as support for the new IEEE1149.6 standard for advanced digital networks, which takes advantage of a circuit board's boundary scan infrastructure to test AC-coupled LVDS signals and high-speed buses such as Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express, Fibre Channel and others.
