Flying probe testers gain boundary scan
Symphony APT-9000 from JTAG Technologies integrates boundary-scan within Takaya flying probe testers.
Symphony APT-9000 from JTAG Technologies integrates boundary-scan within Takaya flying probe testers In addition to applying boundary-scan to the target board via the fixed probes, Symphony APT-9000 uses the flying probes in a unique manner under dynamic control of the boundary-scan test

Boundary scan modules access complex boards
JTAG Technologies has a new family of digital I/O scan modules for enhanced testing of complex printed circuit boards.
Software measures mixed-signal voltage levels
A free JTAG-powered software tool supports the new SCANSTA476 analogue voltage monitor from National Semiconductor.
The integrated solution, combined with the standard flying probe test, provides excellent fault coverage on complex analogue/digital circuit boards.
The system maximises testability even on difficult-to-access digital nets, such as those associated with BGAs as well as for portions of the board that are not compatible with boundary-scan.
In addition to delivering high test coverage, the solution requires low initial investment, reduces development time and expense and avoids the need for test fixtures.
Boundary-scan test development is performed off-line, freeing production equipment to maintain maximum factory throughput.
Porting of the applications to the factory is easy and is supported by the familiar Takaya user interface.
Symphony APT-9000 also provides high volume in-system programming for flash memories and CPLDs with a wide variety of formats, all under control of the Takaya test executive.
"Symphony products offer our customers the optimised factory test strategies that they are looking for, cost-effective solutions based on leading technologies that deliver extremely high test coverage and rapid programming", stated Ray Dellecker, US Marketing Manager for JTAG Technologies.
"We are very pleased to have partnered with Takaya to bring this JTAG Technologies' product to our mutual customers".
Symphony APT-9000 is available immediately from JTAG Technologies. Request a free brochure from JTAG Technologies ...
