If you’re reading Hackaday, you’ve almost certainly heard of JTAG. There’s an excellent chance you’ve even used it once or twice to reflash an unruly piece of hardware. But how well do you actually ...

[Matthew “wrongbaud” Alt] is well known around these parts for his hardware hacking and reverse-engineering lessons, and today he’s bringing us a JTAG hacking primer that demoes some cool new hardware ...

It is fairly common knowledge that hacking into today’s intelligent Internet devices is child’s play in most cases. The main reason is that the devices have little or no innate security designed in.

Download the PDF of this article. These days, hardware debug interfaces like the Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) IEEE 1149.1 standard are ubiquitous. You can find them on many microcontroller and ...

JTAG (jay-tag) is one of the engineering acronyms that has been transformed into a noun, although arguably it is not so popular as RAM, or CPU. IEEE Std 1149.1-1990 IEEE Standard Test Access Port and ...

Boundary Scan technique is most often thought of as a board-level test method, but certain techniques makes system level test with JTAG quite effective. Many types of faults can arise when systems are ...

Samtec is releasing a variety of board-level and cable connector systems for JTAG applications, which are currently shipping in volume quantities, says the interconnect manufacturer. The Samtec JTAG ...

Two JTAG controller kits for ASSET InterTech's ScanWorksplatform for embedded instruments accelerate test throughput by plugging intothe high-speed PCIe bus of a PC running the ScanWorks software. The ...

The semiconductor industry has been deeply influenced to spur innovations, owing to the expansion of IoT, AI, and wireless communication in the market. It is essential to shape these innovations into ...

Designed in close consultation with industry, the new controller prioritises robustness for the unpredictability of prototyping and development, as well as the challenging environments of production.
