RICHARDSON, TX – Asset InterTech has partnered with Flextronics to accelerate the adoption of IEEE P1687 Internal JTAG (IJTAG).

The Flextronics Center of Excellence in Austin will collaborate with Asset on the development of tools supporting the standard for Asset’s ScanWorks platform for embedded instruments.

The firms also will undertake joint marketing activities on the lifecycle value of deploying validation and test strategies based on the standard. They both have plans to conduct seminars, author joint white papers, present technical papers on IJTAG technology, and compile application notes. 

Once ratified next year, the standard will specify an open architecture and interfacing mechanisms for instrumentation embedded into semiconductor chips, simplifying the use of these embedded instruments to validate, test and debug chips, circuit boards and systems.

It will enable efficient use of embedded instruments throughout a product’s lifecycle, including circuit board validation during design, board test in manufacturing, and maintenance diagnostics in the field.
