    JTAG Tutorial The IEEE-1149.1 standard, also known as JTAG or boundary-scan, has for many years provided an access method for testing printed circuit board assemblies, in-system-programming, and more.

Introduction Since its introduction as an industry standard in 1990, JTAG has continuously grown in adoption, popularity, and usefulness—even today, new revisions and supplements to the IEEE-1149.1 standard are being developed and implemented. This document is a brief introduction to the nature and history of JTAG, from its introduction to new extensions in current development. What is JTAG? JTAG, commonly referred to as boundary-scan and defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) 1149.1, originally began as an integrated method for testing interconnects on printed circuit boards (PCBs) implemented at the integrated circuit (IC) level.

  • ORCA Series Boundary Scan
    ORCA Series Boundary Scan August 2004 Application Note AN8073 Introduction The increasing complexity of integrated circuits and packages has increased the difficulty of testing printed-circuit boards. As integrated circuits become more complex, testing of the loaded board is one of the most difficult tasks in the design cycle. Advanced package technology has led to the need to develop new ways to test the printed-circuit boards instead of conventional probing techniques. To cope with these testing issues, the IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990 (IEEE Standard Test Access Port and Boundary- Scan Architecture) was developed to provide a solution to the problem of testing the printed circuit board. IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990 defines a test access port and boundary-scan architecture so that circuitry can test interconnec- tions between integrated circuits on the printed-circuit board, test the integrated circuit itself, and analyze function- ality of the device on the printed-circuit board. To address these issues, the IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990 compatible boundary-scan architecture and test access port are implemented in the ORCA® series. The boundary-scan logic, including a boundary-scan test access port (BSTAP) and other associated circuitry, is placed at the upper left corner of the device, while boundary-scan shift registers are located near each I/O pad. The boundary-scan test access port controller conforms to the standard for the three mandatory instructions (bypass, extest, and sample/preload). This conformance was tested with vectors generated by the internal Lattice Semiconductor program Tapdance (boundary-scan conformance vector generator). In addition to the three manda- tory instructions, four user-defined instructions are provided to support additional testability of the ORCA series.

Tests are desired to be consistent and test coverage should be as high as possible, which is perfect for automated testing software. This thesis intends to develop computer controlled tests of faulty PCB assemblies using boundary scan, which is meant to quickly locate the error so that an analysis engineer can evaluate it and prevent it from happening in future versions of the product. Boundary scan is even able to test the inner circuitry. Testing with boundary scan has been around for quite some time, but in recent years it has shown to be truly valuable and time saving, due to the increasing complexity of PCB assemblies.

    Module 8 Testing of Embedded System Version 2 EE IIT, Kharagpur 1 Lesson 41 Boundary Scan Methods and Standards Version 2 EE IIT, Kharagpur 2 Instructional Objectives After going through this lesson the student would be able to • Explain the meaning of the term Boundary Scan • List the IEEE 1149 series of standards with their important features • Describe the architecture of IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan and explain the functionality of each of its components • Explain, with the help of an example, how a board-level design can be equipped with the boundary scan feature • Describe the advantages and disadvantages of the boundary scan technique Boundary Scan Methods and Standards 1. Boundary Scan History and Family Boundary Scan is a family of test methodologies aiming at resolving many test problems: from chip level to system level, from logic cores to interconnects between cores, and from digital circuits to analog or mixed-mode circuits. It is now widely accepted in industry and has been considered as an industry standard in most large IC system designs. Boundary-scan, as defined by the IEEE Std. 1149.1 standard [1-3], is an integrated method for testing interconnects on printed circuit board that is implemented at the IC level. Earlier, most Printed Circuit Board (PCB) testing was done using bed-of-nail in-circuit test equipment. Recent advances with VLSI technology now enable microprocessors and Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) to be packaged into fine pitch, high count packages. The miniaturization of device packaging, the development of surface-mounted packaging, double-sided and multi-layer board to accommodate the extra interconnects between the increased density of devices on the board reduces the physical accessibility of test points for traditional bed-of-nails in-circuit tester and poses a great challenge to test manufacturing defects in future.
