Testing electronic circuits has been an important topic in the industry since the first transistor was developed, and today it is as relevant as ever. Test strategies are graded by how close they come ...

Most complex electronic systems take advantage of the IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG) standard in one way or another. If the system uses complex FPGAs or CPLDs, then they are almost certainly configured using the ...

Generically, embedded test implies a test capability that has been integrated into a product. Of course, whether that product is an IC, a PCB, or a complete system, embedded test means different ...

Companies specializing in circuit board and system design-for-test (DFT) tools are pursuing a variety of strategies to serve test and debug applications based on innovations they announced over the ...

It is fairly common knowledge that hacking into today’s intelligent Internet devices is child’s play in most cases. The main reason is that the devices have little or no innate security designed in.

When projects move away from discrete development of loosely coupled systems to an integrated heterogeneous environment, elephantine debugging challenges are created. These challenges do not exist ...
