Page 37 XJTAG Highlights Benefits of Boundary Scan


CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND — XJTAG®, a leader in JTAG boundary scan products, will be presenting a talk entitled “Intro- duction to Accelerated PCBA Testing and Programming” at FPGAworld™ in Stockholm on September 12th, 2023. The com- pany will also be manning a stand at the conference on the same day in Stockholm, and in Copenhagen on September 14th. Simon Payne, XJTAG CEO


said, “All FPGAs have boundary scan built in, but many engi- neers don’t realize how it can help them. FPGAworld is a great opportunity to demonstrate how the board’s JTAG connection al- lows engineers to use the FPGA’s boundary scan capabilities to test their board.” FPGAworld is an interna-


tional conference for engineers working with FPGAs, and acts as a forum for discussion and networking. The formal presen- tations during the day and infor- mal discussions at the venue’s booths and over lunch or coffee give engineers the opportunity


Engineering BOHEMIA, NY — Q Source, a provider of custom solutions for the biomedical, electronic, and pharmaceutical manufacturing industries, has added the next- generation Mantis stereo micro- scopes from Vision Engineering to its product lineup. The next-generation Mantis


stereo microscopes are designed to deliver unparalleled visual clarity and ergonomic excellence. With a focus on operator well- being and image quality, these microscopes provide an excep- tional viewing experience. Vision Engineering’s ad-


vanced technology provides a high- resolution, high-contrast optical stereo image that captures even the smallest details with excep- tional clarity. The microscopes come equipped with digital imag- ing capabilities that allow real- time image sharing, improving communication and reporting. Five illumination modes


offer enhanced 3D illumination, inspection of coatings and fluo- rescing agents, and contrast-en- hancing illumination for low-con-


trast subjects. Contact: Q Source, 227

to learn from industry experts like XJTAG. Tommaso De Vivo, XJTAG’s


vice president business develop- ment, EMEA, will be presenting at FPGAworld as well as being available at an exhibition booth for 1-on-1 discussions. He said, “I’ll be explaining what boundary scan is and how it allows an FPGA’s pins to be turned into vir- tual test points that can be read and controlled. I’ll show how that can be used to test the board for assembly faults and to perform ac- celerated programming.” One of the biggest problems


with testing modern high-densi- ty PCBAs comes from the lack of physical access to points in the circuit caused by shrinking board area and the use of ad- vanced IC packages such as BGAs. Tommaso De Vivo said, “The beauty of using boundary scan to test the board is that the reduced level of physical access no longer matters. And because you don’t need to configure the FPGA or run any code on the board, you can also use it to find out what’s wrong on boards that won’t boot.” XJTAG’s tools provide an


easy-to-use way to make the most of an FPGA’s boundary scan capabilities. Boundary scan is used by many engineers in R&D, test, and manufacturing across all industry sectors. It as- sists them with board bring-up as well as test and debug, and having an FPGA on the board also allows for accelerated pro-


gramming of memories. Contact: XJTAG, Camtech House, 137 Cambridge Road,
