How to Debug Dead Boards in Production | Case Study | eBook

Cost goes up. Complexity goes up. Speed goes up. But time to debug boards goes down. Somethingโ€™s gotta give, or at least change. The answer is taking advantage of the processor’s JTAG debug port to enable anย inside out approach to debug and test at-speed, not outside in at โ€˜low-speedโ€™.

Todayโ€™s Intelยฎ board designs are highly complex and expensive. Increasing operating speeds are slicing margins way too thin. Small problems result in unsolvable โ€œdead boards.โ€ Itโ€™s almost impossible to debug dead boards from production fall-out, because functional test systems need a functional board to troubleshoot. And that means the board must boot. If it wonโ€™t, itโ€™s dead and we all know:ย dead boards canโ€™t talk. Or can they?

Download this eBookย and let our expert, Larry Osborn, guide you through the ins and outs of a changing production test environment.

Learn how to:

  • Maintain higher yields with diminishing probe access
  • Debug and recover dead boards that donโ€™t boot
  • โ€œBinโ€ problems fast and create a feedback loop for production
