Product Overview
The TF112 combines a 7 port IEEE1149.1 (JTAG) multiplexer with addressable
multidrop capability. As a multiplexer, 7 local ports allow partitioning of scan
chains to simplify and accelerate programming and test and debug sequences. Optional
daughter cards or ICs are easily handled with dedicated scan chains. Local chains
can be selected individually or in combination as required.
Addressable multi-drop capability allows operation on a backplane with other TF112s
or similar addressable devices. 8 address pins are used to set the unique device
address. Ad- dressing the device is accomplished by loading the instruction register
with a value matching the address pins. The backplane port and one of the local
ports are bi-directional and may be set as master or slave. This feature enables
multi- master operation.
All major ATPG vendors support this function and both addressing and selection of
local ports is handled automatically by the vector generation software.
