Proposed Changes for IEEE 1149.1-2010 (JTAG)

This meeting is to update IC designers and board level test engineers on upcoming changes in IEEE 1149.1-2010.  The current proposals we are working on cover the following areas: clarification on use of TRST*, better support and relaxed rules for differential drivers/receivers, new support for no-connect pins in packages, improved support for linkage-ground-power pins, new support for initialization of complex IOs prior to test and others.

Introduction to IEEE P1687 Internal JTAG
CJ Clark, cclark at INTELLITECH dot COM

This meeting is to update IC designers on the basics of IEEE P1687 Standard for Access and Control of Instrumentation Embedded within a Semiconductor Device.  Presentations will be given on the need and use model of P1687/IJTAG, basic information on the internal P1687 network, Instrument Connectivity Language and TCL with P1687 Procedural Definition Language.

Seminar 7

Open

The Europractice IC/MEMS and Software Service has been serving European universities and industry since 1995 as a project by the European Commission to stimulate use of advanced IC/MEMS technologies. An overview of the project scope and the new offerings in CAD tools and IC/MEMS technologies for 2010 will be presented. Attendance is open to all interested parties.

The EDAA/ACM PhD forum is part of the DATE Conference and hosted by ACM SIGDA and the European Design Automation Association (EDAA). The forum is a great opportunity for PhD students to present their thesis work to a broad audience in the system design and design automation community from both industry and academia. The forum may also help students to establish contacts for entering the job market. In addition, representatives from industry and academia get a glance of state-of-the-art in system design and design automation.
