2 The importance of Testing Don t ship bad boards to your customers, find problems before your customers do. DOA s (Death On Arrival) lead to huge costs (rule of ten) The "rule of ten" specifies that it costs times more to find and repair a defect at the next stage of assembly. the part itself at sub-assembly at final assembly at the dealer/distributor. at the customer. Important to find defects in an early stage. 2 Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

3 What are you testing Simplified statement: If all components are correctly soldered - the board should work Assuming: Design is right Components are OK (ppm -.ppm) Conclusion: Testing the interconnections should be sufficient to detect a great deal of bad boards. 3 Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

9 Commonly used Testmethods FT Functional Test 9 Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

10 Functional vs Structural Test Functional Test Checks every function of the board (interconnects are implicitly tested) - Manual creation of the tests - Very difficult to diagnose, doesn t pinpoint to the exact location of the problem - Requires highly skilled engineers - Time consuming - Expensive test, very good as final test to check specifications Structural Test (AOI, AXI, FP and ICT) Checks the structure of the board (interconnects, device orientation, device values etc.) - test + Automatic generation based on the Netlist + Low cost + Pinpoints to the exact location of the problem if sufficient testpoints are available Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

11 FP and ICT interconnection test The probes of a Flying Prober and In Circuit Tester are connected to a measurement system. Compare this with the probes of a multimeter. Moving around with the probes will pinpoint to the exact location of the interconnection problem. Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

12 How to perform a Structural Test on a board containing Hi-density devices like BGA s The probes of a Flying Prober or In Circuit Tester require a minimum clearance and have no access to the BGA pins How to solve this problem? 2 Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

13 How to solve the access problem 3 Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

14 Boundary-scan is the solution to the access problem What is Boundary-scan and how does it work Official standard: IEEE Std Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

15 Boundary-scan architecture The Boundary-scan architecture is a standard implementation in many devices, such as µs, DSPs, FPGAs etc.. I/ I/ I/ I/ I/ I/ I/ I/ I/

26 Shift-in Testvector via Bypass Shift TMS Instruction register TCK TRST Optional

27 UPDATE drives the BSR data onto all pins simultaneously Bypass Update TMS TCK TRST Optional Instruction register

28 UPDATE command The UPDATE command can be compared with one probe of the multimeter, but than for all Bscan I/O pins simultaneously (hundreds thousands pins). However for a proper interconnection measurement a second probe is required. This is established with the CAPTURE command. 28 Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

29 CAPTURE simultaneously senses the values on the pins and stores it in the BSR The nets are at a certain logic level. Bypass TMS TCK TRST Optional Instruction register

30 CAPTURE simultaneously senses the values on the pins and stores it in the BSR Bypass Capture TMS TCK TRST Optional Instruction register

31 CAPTURE command The Capture command can be compared with the second probe of the multimeter, but than for all Bscan I/O pins simultaneously. The UPDATE and CAPTURE commands provides direct access to hundreds or thousands I/O pins. Each Bscan I/O pin can be seen as a build-in TESTPROBE. 3 Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3

32 Shift-out captured data After the values on the pins have been captured into the BSR the result is shifted out via. The result can be compared with the expected data. Any difference pin-points to the error location. 32 Copyright 23, JTAG Technologies juni 3
