Corelis introduced new JTAG Starter Kit

23 December 2014 – Corelis introduced a new JTAG Starter Kit, a new value-oriented bundle for those looking to get started quickly and painlessly with JTAG test and debug. This new bundle combines the advanced capabilities of ScanExpress Debugger with a portable USB 2.0 JTAG controller and includes 12 full months of support and software updates. The JTAG Starter Kit is packaged to offer a convenient, integrated toolkit for hardware developers and technicians looking for comprehensive, yet affordable test and debug features.

The JTAG Starter Kit includes an intuitive, easy-to-use toolkit, making it easier than ever to control and manage debug sessions with capabilities including:

• Interactive, real-time visual control and observation of all boundary-scan controllable input and output signals.
• Two scripting modules—advanced and basic—for powerful, automatable access to boundary-scan signals.
• JTAG protocol command module for direct, low-level access to JTAG scans.
• Opcode discovery module to identify potential undocumented instructions for each device on the scan chain.
• TCK test to automatically determine the maximum clock rate for a unit under test (UUT).

“The JTAG Starter Kit significantly reduces the learning curve for those with little or no JTAG/boundary-scan experience, yet is still powerful enough to make even seasoned JTAG users green with envy,” states Ryan Jones, Senior Technical Marketing Engineer at Corelis. “Developers and technicians naturally resist production-oriented JTAG test tools due to their inherent complexity. They need something that is convenient, easy-to-use, affordable, and suitable for their environment. The JTAG Starter Kit fits that requirement perfectly.”
