Automated Configuration of Scan Path Linkers Using x1149

Application Notes

A boundary scan linker mux (multiplexer) device, also known as JTAG scan bridge or scan path linker, is a device that will be able to link or join multiple boundary scan chains into one single chain or multiple chain configurations, depending on how the boundary scan linker mux device is configured. This application note describes how to configure scan path linkers using the new automated scan path linker configuration feature introduced in software release 1.6.0.0 for Keysight Technologies x1149 Boundary Scan Analyzer.
