SCANBOOSTER/PCI, SCANBOOSTER/USB and SCANBOOSTER/USB-FXT for JTAG/Boundary Scan test - GOEPEL electronics

The SCANBOOSTER™ Family

The SCANBOOSTER™ product family complements the existing spectrum of SCANFLEX® solutions by an independent product range in the lower to mid-range performance area.

Scan Booster Available family members are SCANBOOSTER/PCI, SCANBOOSTER/USB, SCANBOOSTER/USB-FXT and SCANBOOSTER/PEC. These are JTAG/Boundary Scan controllers on PCI bus, PCI Cabled Express and USB2.0 basis, respectively, for JTAG/Boundary Scan test, (C)PLD/FPGA programming and FLASH In-System programming with limited amount of data.

The controller range provides optimal solutions in particular for standard applications with high cost pressure and lower performance requirements.

 

SCANBOOSTER/USB

The SCANBOOSTER/USB is equipped with a USB 2.0 interface and provides two separate and independent TAPs. It supports a programmable TCK frequency up to 16 MHz.

By utilizing GOEPEL electronic’s TIC01 (TAP Interface Card) modules serving as interface between controller and UUT, some of the SCANFLEX® advantages apply. That means both TAPs are independently programmable with regard to output voltage, input voltage, output impedance and input impedance.

Using GOEPEL electronic’s CION™ ASICs as driver circuit, the TAP have outstanding good signal integrity in combination with special features for interface protection. The controller offers additional resources such as 32 bit Parallel I/O (dynamic), two analogue I/O, three generic digital I/O as well as three trigger signals.
TIC02/03 - TEM (Options for the SCANBOOSTER/USB)
Longer distances between SCANBOOSTER/USB and UUT might require useage of a TIC02/03 module (Tap Interface Card) in conjunction with a TEM (TIC Extension Module). Differential lines allow data transmission with long cables. Further information to TIC02/03 and TEM can be found in the SCANFLEX® User Manual.

 

SCANBOOSTER/USB-FXT

The SCANBOOSTER/USB-FXT is equipped with a USB 2.0 interface and provides two fully independent TAPs. It supports a programmable TCK frequency up to 16 MHz. Both TAPs use externally controlled active test heads (exclusively). The distance between the controller and TAP head can be up to 4m/12ft without loss of performance.

Exteneral TAP heads such as TIC02/03 offer programmable input and output voltage and isolation relays. For applications where difficult access problems are encountered for instance thermal and vibration testing, the TIC03 is available with extended temperature range. It was particularly developed for HASS/HALT applications.

More information about available TICs can be found [here].

By utilizing the various TIC modules as an interface between the transceiver and UUT, this enables the advantages of the SCANFLEX® architecture. The transceiver offers additional resources such as 32 bit Parallel I/O (dynamic), two analogue I/O, three generic digital I/O as well as three trigger signals.

The SCANBOOSTER™/USB-FXT interface is compatible to any SCANFLEX® SFX-TAP(x) Desktop-Transceiver. Developed test programs are cross compatible and can be executed without re-compilation. The SCANBOOSTER™/USB-FXT is completely supported by the industry leading Boundary Scan software SYSTEM CASCON™.

SCANBOOSTER/PCI

The SCANBOOSTER/PCI is a plug-in card for 32 Bit PCI bus with 33 MHz bus cycle. The controller provides two separate TAPs and supports a programmable TCK frequency of maximal 16 MHz.

Both TAPs are independently programmable with regard to output voltage, input voltage, output impedance and input impedance. By utilizing GÖPEL electronic’s CION™ ASICs as driver circuit, the TAP have outstanding good signal integrity in combination with special features for interface protection.

The controller offers additional resources such as dynamic 32 Bit Parallel I/O, trigger signals, an SCP bus for system extensions and a specific interface for parallel gang testing of up to eight UUT.
SCANBOOSTER/PCI is interface compatible to former hardware generations (e.g. PCI1149.1-X). Previously developed test programs can be cross compatible on each SCANFLEX® platform without recompilation.

The SCANBOOSTER/PCI is completely supported by the industry leading Boundary Scan software SYSTEM CASCON™.

BST Signal Access Board (Options for SCANBOOSTER/PCI)
   

The BST Signal Access Board has been developed for fast adaptation of a JTAG/Boundary Scan UUT to a first generation JTAG/Boundary Scan controller from GÖPEL electronic. The board can be used only for the SCANBOOSTER/PCI. All signals can be accessed via low-profile headers.

The BST Signal Access Board facilitates the contacting of the UUT. It also allows immediate connection of prototypes via clips. Additional LEDs visualizing the TAP signal states provide fast test bus verification. It can be integrated into a Fixture on demand.

 

Gang Access Pod (Options for SCANBOOSTER/PCI)
    The Gang Access Pod has been developed for simultaneous testing and programming several UUTs for a first generation JTAG/Boundary Scan controller from GOEPEL electronic. The board can be used only for the SCANBOOSTER/PCI. It provides 8 separately buffered ports that can be enabled and disabled individually. Besides the TAP, 10 more I/O signals and two operating voltages are available per port. Since TAP interface voltages can be defined, the Gang Access Pod supports various logic families down to 1.8V. At the same time it is 5V tolerant. If required, the Gang Access Pod can be integrated in a fixture.
