TestWorks is the first company to sign up for JTAG's recently released ProVision tool.
Development tools help protect FPGA security
JTAG Technologies boundary-scan tools now support the advanced security features of Altera Corporation's Stratix II FPGA family.
ProVision uses a unique project database structure, automatically analysing the boundary-scan and non-boundary-scan elements of a design to create rapidly a full set of tests and in-system programming applications.
JTAG Technologies' novel approach to device modelling provides the entire information needed to control correctly nonscan clusters for optimum test coverage, whilst maintaining manual override capability for skilled users.
Moreover, JTAG ProVision's ease-of-use extends beyond single-board designs.
The tool can easily handle all levels of target complexity from single boards with one, or multiple, test access ports (TAPs) through complex, multiboard configurations.
"JTAG ProVision dramatically changes the way users will work with boundary-scan", said James Stanbridge, UK Sales Manager of JTAG Technologies.
"We're capitalising on the acknowledged power inherent in our comprehensive line of development and production products by making the development process even easier and more intuitive".
"What's more all of the benefits of our design for test (DFT) and production tools are immediately available to users of JTAG ProVision".
Both new and infrequent users are assisted with JTAG ProVision's wizard, which guides the user through the steps to prepare an application.
Graphical tools allow straightforward management of design data while JTAG Technologies' renowned DFT analysis tools monitor coverage and assure that quality goals are achieved.
Applications developed with JTAG ProVision are fully compatible with all existing production tools from JTAG Technologies, including stand-alone boundary-scan systems as well as the industry's broadest range of ICT, flying probe, and functional test system integrations.
JTAG ProVision is available immediately with competitive pricing and simple upgrade paths. Request a free brochure from JTAG Technologies ...
