The makers of JTAG Live Buzz and BuzzPlus announce a new release of the popular JTAG Live platform and the free Buzz module that is now downloadable without registration. New JTAG Live V1.6 features include an automatic chain detect that can interrogate multiple boundary-scan chains to determine the number of components in each plus their manufacturer and type.
Another requested feature added to JTAG Live V1.6 is multi-language support. Now users from Japan, Germany, Russia, France, China, Holland and Portugal can get up and running in their native language. The JTAG Live product family includes free Buzz, plus the optional modules Script (for Python-powered cluster logic testing), AutoBuzz (for automated interconnect comparisons), Clip (interactive test vector generator) and CoreCommander.
For all modules only BSDL models of the JTAG/IEEE std 1149.1 compliant parts (available from most manufacturers web-sites) are needed to start using the tool-set. Supported interfaces currently include Altera’s USB Blaster, Xilinx’s parallel III/IV and USB interfaces, JTAG Technologies’ JT 3705 / USB controller, JTAG Live dedicated USB controller and some FTDI based modules.
