New version of ScanExpress Boundary-Scan Tool Suite from Corelis

Corelis, Inc., has made available of its latest version of ScanExpress Boundary-Scan Tool Suite. The new Version 7.6 CD is the first test tool to include JTAG embedded test (JET) support for AMD Family 10 processors, enabling processor emulation-based testing capabilities on AMD ASB2 (BGA), Opteron 4100, and Quad-Core Opteron CPUs.

The new ScanExpress CD integrates with National Instruments High-Speed Digital I/O (HSDIO) hardware as a JTAG/boundary-scan controller. All ScanExpress products now fully support the 655x series of digital instruments with JTAG test clock (TCK) rates of up to 30 MHz, allowing tighter integration of ScanExpress software into NI test platforms.

Additional CD improvements include:

New test scripting functions and features including direct JTAG scan functions, global script variables, and test time stamping.
New pin direction constraints for ScanExpress TPG's test vector generator.
Overhauled Topology Viewer, now including a visual representation of all components on the scan chain, including series resistors, test connectors, and more.
Support for Blackhawk XDS560v2 series JTAG controllers.
JTAG embedded test support for Freescale i. MX51 and Texas Instruments AM/DM37x processors.

Corelis offers free training to its clients so that they may immediately utilize the various new product features and innovations now available. Class schedules and registration information can be found on the Corelis website at:
