Test Engineering Services from BSE

The BSE group has engineering resources and test capabilities spread around our three main European offices. We offer test engineering services covering several areas:


BSDL files are frequently a problem for those using Boundary Scan. All ICs which have boundary scan capability need a BSDL file which describes the internal cell structure of the device. Any inaccuracies in the BSDL file will lead to problems with generating and running test programs.

 

Are you having problems with your BSDL files?

Our BSDL file Verification Service will check:

  1. Length of Instruction Register
  2. Length of Boundary Scan Register
  3. Existence of Bypass Register
  4. Existence and value of IDCode Register (where applicable)
  5. Operation of Bypass instruction
  6. Operation of Sample / Preload instruction
  7. Operation of IDCode instruction (where applicable)
  8. Operation of Extest instruction
  9. Correct operation of all scan cells and I/O pin connections
Our service will include:
  1. Preparation of standard universal board for the test
  2. Production of a corrected BSDL file.
  3. Comprehensive report
You will need to supply us with:
  1. Two sample ICs (which may be destroyed as part of the exercise)
  2. Full data sheet for the device
  3. Existing BSDL file
  4. Full details of any special conditions which are different from standard IEEE1149.1 (eg. reset, disable, etc.)
