Discover a World of Boundary Scan & JTAG Benefits

The underlying purpose of JTAG or boundary scan technology is to enable engineers to overcome the limited access challenges of today's complex boards by providing virtual access to the board. But the best thing about the IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan standard is the enormous business benefits it delivers.

Reduced time to market. Reduced risk. Increased quality. Decreased defects. Increased productivity. Lower inventory levels. Less waste and board damage. The convenience of reprogramming without disassembling boards. The expediency of reusing the same 1149.1 tests from design to manufacturing and repair. In addition to saving costs by not requiring fixtures, JTAG / boundary scan tests can be executed on a low-cost PC platform.
