Scanflex boundary scan gang tester

Goepel electronic introduces SFX-TAP16/G, the worldwide first modular Gang test system with integrated UUT power supply. Without any additional hardware, users are now able to test or program up to 16 boards in parallel, applying only one central Scanflex controller. SFX-TAP16/G can be open configured, supporting numerous modern test and program strategies such as Processor Emulation Test (VarioTAP), core assisted Flash programming, chip embedded instrumentation and protocol driven interface tests as well as Boundary Scan.

This new TAP transceiver’s concept is based on configurable TAP Slot Cards (TSC) and Power Slot Cards (PSC). The number of TAPs on the UUT may vary between eight (2 UUT) and one (16 UUT). The Power Slot Cards enable the individual power supply per UUT, monitoring the power consumption and feature isolating relays. SFX-TAP16/G is also available as a pure kit without housing for integrations on customers’ sites.

SFX-TAP16/G can be freely combined with all Scanflex controllers supporting PCI, PCI Express, PXI, PXI Express USB, GBit LAN, FireWire or LXI, whereby the distance can be up to five meters. The new Gang testers are fully supported in the industrially leading JTAG/Boundary Scan platform System Cascon from version 4.5.4 on.
