Eindhoven - June 22, 2009 - Following a successful series of JTAG /
Functional test seminars in Europe and the United States, Geotest - Marvin
Test Systems and JTAG Technologies are pleased to announce a new Technology
Partnership. Under the partnership, Geotest now offers pre-configured PXI
test systems including the JTAG Technologies' high-performance JT 37x7/PXI
boundary-scan controller. Included with the boundary-scan test option is
JTAG Technologies' high-level driver suite for Geotest's ATEasy software
which facilitates integrating boundary-scan applications as part of an
overall functional test strategy.
The preconfigured Geotest Basic Automated Test System (GBATS) offers
functional and structural test methods in a compact PXI-based platform as
well as providing high-throughput in-system programming for flash memories
and programmable logic devices.
Peter van den Eijnden, Director JTAG Technologies commented, "We're very
pleased to have worked with Geotest in offering the test community such a
practical and beneficial system. During the recent seminars, we've had a
good close-up view of customer needs and the combined capability we offer
with Geotest should be right on target."
Mike Dewey, Geotest's Senior Marketing Product Manager, added, "Combining
functional and boundary scan test methods is a test strategy that we see
more and more users adopting. Our partnership with JTAG Technologies is a
natural fit for providing customers with solutions that meet these demands
and address the need for test coverage and throughput, particularly for
boards with limited test access."
The GBATS TS-720 system with the JT controller is available in 6-8 weeks.
JTAG Technologies' PIP/ATEasy software integration package is available
immediately.
