Example Embodiment

[0022] See figure 1 Shown is a schematic diagram of the interface of the JTAG test system of the present invention. figure 1 , FPGA is connected with the circuit board under test through the JTAG interface and probes. While testing through the JTAG interface, the probes from the FPGA are connected to the monitoring points of the circuit board under test to read the data of each point in the test Variety. Then finally the FPGA is sent to the embedded processor or PC through the asynchronous serial port for data analysis and determination. The hardware part uses VHDL language to write the whole design. Realized on FPGAEPC1E1-3T144 of LATTICE company. The PC software part is developed by C++ software.

Abstract

The invention relates to a field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based joint test action group (JTAG) test method. In the method, an FPGA is connected with a circuit board to be tested by a JTAG interface and a probe; when a test is performed through the JTAG interface, the probe led out of the FPGA is connected with a monitoring point of the circuit board to be tested so as to read the data change of each point during the test; and finally, the FPGA sends the data change to a personal computer (PC) or a microprocessor for data analysis and judgment through an asynchronous series-port circuit. By the FPGA-based JTAG test method, a welding defect of a ball grid array (BGA) chip and the welding condition of the circuit around the chip can be precisely judged.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the field of electronic technology, in particular to a JTAG test method implemented based on FPGA. 【Background technique】 [0002] In order to solve the testing problem of VLSI, the Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) proposed the boundary-scan technology, which tests the device and its peripheral circuits through the boundary-scan unit existing between the input and output pins of the device and the core circuit. , thereby improving the controllability and observability of the device, solving the above-mentioned test problems brought about by the development of modern electronic technology, and can more conveniently complete the test of the circuit board assembled by the modern device. Often this test is called a JTAG link test. [0003] There are many schemes for designing circuit board testing based on the JTAG standard IEEE1149, and its advantage is that online testing can be performed. Soldering defects of some components o...
