ASSET(R) and International Test Technologies Support CPU Functional Test and Intel(R)'s New Embedded Test Technology

Posted on: Monday, 29 August 2005, 18:00 CDT

ASSET InterTech (www.asset-intertech.com), a leader in boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1/JTAG) test and in-system programming (ISP), and International Test Technologies (www.intertesttech.com), a leader in microprocessor emulation-based board test and debug, announced today that they have jointly developed support for Intel(R) Interconnect Built-In Self Test (Intel(R) IBIST) embedded test technology on International Test Technologies' MicroMaster functional test platform. By combining at-speed processor-based functional tests and Intel IBIST-specific tests, electronics manufacturers can increase efficiencies and reduce test costs.

The ASSET ScanWorks boundary scan system is the only JTAG platform that supports Intel IBIST. ASSET and International Test Technologies have had a strategic relationship since September of 2004 when the two companies announced joint development and marketing activities.

"Integrating ScanWorks Intel IBIST support on the MicroMaster platform continues ASSET's leadership position as the only boundary-scan supplier with tools to accelerate the deployment of Intel's next-generation test technology," said Tim Caffee, ASSET's Director of Business Development.

"Circuit boards have few, if any, test points," said Billy Fenton, CEO of International Test Technologies. "This and high-frequency buses dictate non-intrusive, structural and at-speed functional test methods. Integrating ScanWorks Intel IBIST support on the MicroMaster addresses these needs."

Pricing and Availability

ScanWorks for Intel IBIST on the MicroMaster platform is available now from ASSET InterTech. Licenses are sold as an add-on option to ScanWorks or new customers have a typical purchase price of $20,000 for a ScanWorks for Intel IBIST Development Station.
