GEB Enterprise - Boundary-scan for high-speed dynamic testing

Luciano Gabbani, General Director

GEB Enterprise has accumulated more than thirty years experience in digital hardware design including printed circuit boards, ASIC and FPGA integrated circuits, as well as developing the related functional and boundary scan test programs. The multidisciplinary approach allows us to enjoy the advantages of boundary scan and exercise the hardware in dynamic full-speed tests

Teledyne DALSA: "JTAG Technologies software is more robust than any of the others"

Teledyne DALSA has a 30-year heritage of developing the world’s leading high performance digital imaging and semiconductor solutions, and its new product pipeline for 2011 is the strongest ever. Test Engineering at Teledyne DALSA evaluated all the major Boundary Scan players when they adopted the technique six years ago. “We found JTAG Technologies’ software tools more robust than any of the others, and they let us do more at the engineering level.”

Philips Healthcare: Boundary-scan - "a natural way of working"
Rob Raaijmakers, Senior Electronics Designer
Philips Healthcare aims to improve wellbeing by focusing on people in the care cycle — patients and care providers. It removes boundaries in healthcare with innovative and affordable technology throughout the entire care cycle. Complex electronic equipment often relies on Ball Grid Arrays and similar packages to increase packing density. Connections are then hidden below the package body, though, and so invisible to optical inspection. Rob Raaijmakers, Senior Electronics Designer at Philips Healthcare, uses boundary scan to reveal the solder quality.

AimValley: "Boundary scan tells you exactly where the problem is”

Peter te Riele, Test Engineer for New Product Introductions

AimValley is a group of enthusiastic specialist telecom companies. Experts in systems engineering, they specialize in software, hardware and ASIC/FPGA development. A long-term (8-year) boundary scan user, AimValley uses it to test the company’s latest communications board for problem connections. Peter te Riele, Test Engineer for New Product Introductions, outlines some of the benefits.

Megger: "JTAG Technologies helped develop the optimum test solution"

Freddie Chin, Project Manager

Established in the late 1800s, Megger designs and manufactures test and measurement instruments that perform electrical measurements for preventative maintenance, trouble-shooting and commissioning purposes. A first-time user of boundary-scan technology, Megger turned to JTAG Technologies to help test a new range of Portable Appliance Test (PAT) units. Freddie Chin, Project Manager of Megger in Dover, England, recounts the story: "We’re now very close to 100% yield, and JTAG Technologies’ tools and advice got us there".

Kitron: "Hi-class support makes JTAG Technologies the ideal match"

Klaus Thomas Olsen, Senior Test developer
Kitron is an Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS) company with operations in Norway, Sweden, Lithuania, Germany, China and USA. With 1100 highly skilled employees, Kitron manufactures and deliver anything from fully assembled electronic circuit boards to complete end products for their customers globally. Senior Test developer Klaus Thomas Olsen explains how JTAG Technologies helped them with the transition from traditional in-circuit / functional test flows to test flows utilising more boundary scan prior to functional test, resulting in improved yield and reduced costs.

Blue Technology - JTAG AAP adds value to ICT programs

Graham Stallard, Commercial Manager Blue Technology

JTAG Technologies' AAP (Authorized Application Provider) Blue Technology based in Reading, UK, has a long history of ATE problem-solving and customising applications to suit customer needs. When it added boundary-scan testing to its portfolio four years ago, the company sourced the technology from JTAG Technologies.

ARRIS gains improved testability and board access using tools from JTAG Technologies

Tom Nolan, Test engineer at ARRIS

ARRIS is a market leader in providing products that allow operators to deliver a full range of integrated voice, video and data services to their subscribers. They selected JTAG Technologies development tools to implement a boundary‐scan methodology for their C4® CMTS products.

Ubiquisys

Pete Keevill, Founder, VP Engineering Ubiquisys

Ubiquisys chose to adhere to industry standard network timing protocols when it started the design of its ZoneGate femtocell product. Among the challenges for this ambitious project, were design‐for‐test and cost‐effective manufacturing. To meet their design requirements and schedule, Ubiquisys needed a test systems partner with software and hardware expertise to support its project team.

Exéns Development: ‘Great tools and skilled engineers'

Jyrki Keinanen, Engineering Manager at Exéns Development about JTAG Technologies
Jyrki Keinanen was looking for a solution to simplify their engineer's daily work and to shorten the time needed for prototyping and debugging demanding embedded systems. He says; "After a series of discussions with JTAG Technologies Finland the decision to utilize boundary-scan test and associated equipment in our product development was easy."

Alcatel-Lucent

Bill Philbrook, Senior Test Engineer, about JTAG Technologies
"Before starting the boundary scan design, we consulted with the technical support group at JTAG Technologies to verify nothing would prevent us from running existing test-generation software for our proposed design, which combined 42 paddleboards and the midplane. We previously used JTAG Technologies' hardware and software for single and multiboard tests and continued to use it for this project. "Working together with JTAG Technologies, we overcame a few minor issues and successfully completed the test case."

Hima Brühl

Stefan Thielemann, Test Engineer in Test Preparation
Hima started using boundary-scan in 1997, when it became impossible to give a new complex digital board the test coverage they were used to with conventional tools. Mr. Thielemann says, "with our current production levels, our job would just be impossible without boundary-scan".

Axis Electronics

Jon Westall, Principal Test Engineer
"In our business there's no trade-off between high test coverage/accuracy and fast turnaround time. It's extremely important to use tools that automate as much as possible. JTAG Technologies' tools can automatically generate interconnect tests, including a check for pull-ups and pull-down resistors."

GE Fanuc Embedded Systems

Lee Bogardus, Senior Test Engineer 
Lee is an experienced boundary-scan user, having developed tests with tools from JTAG Technologies for several years, prior to the availability of JTAG ProVision.  The types of circuit boards that Lee works on are Multi-Node / Multi-Core high speed computing platforms used primarily for the embedded COTS military marketplace. 

Cessna Aircraft Company

Jens Lukoschat, Electrical Engineer
"The test vector generation and test execution using the JTAG Technologies tools saved a lot of man-hours and money for Cessna and I received positive feedback from management on how much easier and faster this new test method is over what was done previously."

Nortel Networks

Nadine Bergeron-Nutt, Engineering Manager
"The design we had was very complex. Other boundary-scan providers whom we contacted found the complexity of the devices to be a roadblock and couldn't guarantee coverage," said Nadine. However, "after reviewing our design, the JTAG Technologies' field applications engineers felt they could provide the test coverage we were looking for".
