SFX Gang Test Module Kit consists of three basic modules for easy-to-integrate, parallel test or programming of up to 16 or 32 units. Requires one system controller. Can be flexibly adjusted to various environments and different test and programming applications such as flash programming, MCU programming or dynamic tests per Processor Emulation. Consists of three interconnected module types – a TAP transceiver, a multipurpose parallel I/O unit, and a power management unit. For simple system integration, all modules have onboard Mass Interconnect Interfaces from Virginia Panel, and are controlled by a central controller. Supports all modern technologies for Embedded System Access (ESA). In addition to boundary scan, these are Processor Emulation and chip-embedded instruments, for design validation, hardware debugging, production test, programming without probe or nail utilization (non-intrusive). Each site can be individually programmed in several parameters (protocols, voltage, delays etc.).
