SCANFLEX hardware platform (Boundary Scan controllers and accessories)
SCAN BOOSTER Boundary Scan controller
Boundary Scan demonstration and learning products

SCANFLEX® is a revolutionary new hardware platform, created to enable for extended Boundary Scan test
and ISP solutions, taking full advantage of the technical potential provided by today’s and tomorrow’s
standards. SCANFLEX excels when it comes to speed, flexibility, and modularity of a Boundary Scan test
system. But it does not stop there, adding new capabilities for analog and mixed-signal test not found in
competitive products.
SCANFLEX benefits
SCANFLEX concept
Applications benefiting from SCANFLEX
SCANFLEX components (Controllers, Transceivers, I/O features modules) and features
The standardization of IEEE-Std. 1149.1 (JTAG / Boundary Scan) in 1990 set the foundation for one of the
most successful test technologies. Additional standards, based on the IEEE-Std. 1149.1 architecture, have
been developed to support innovative test and in-system programming applications, in particular IEEE-Std.
1532, IEEE-Std. 1149.4, and IEEE-Std. 1149.6, and further standard development efforts are under way.
SCANFLEX® excels with:

Total Modularity
Modular platform consisting of SCANFLEX Controller, SCANFLEX TAP-Transceiver, and SCANFLEX I/O
modules allowing individually (re)configurable solutions
Modular expandable number of (up to 8) parallel, independent TAP and (up to 31) independent I/O modules,
ensuring open scalability of required resources
Modular, interchangeable TAP Interface Cards (TIC) support a variety of interface types and integration
environments

Extreme Flexibility
Flexible electrical signal termination (up to 8 per TAP programmable interface parameters)
Flexible distribution of the individual TAP’s and I/O modules with distances of up to 10m/33ft from the
Controller without performance drop
Flexible analog and digital resources on every TAP-Transceiver as standard configuration, systematically
expandable with optional I/O modules

High-performance SPACETM II Controller Chip Set supporting HYSCANTM for simultaneous handling of
parallel I/O pattern and serial scan pattern up to 80MHz on 8 independent TAP’s
Highly efficient synchronization of analog, digital and mixed signal resources with dynamic TAP operations
and external trigger events
Extensive configuration and upgrade management on-the-fly through SCANFLEX AutoDetect Feature and
FASTSCALETM Technology



SCANFLEX® concept – an overview (example configuration)

SCANFLEX® systems are controlled through a JTAG/Boundary Scan Controller. This controller is
responsible for simultaneous generation and dynamic distribution of serial patterns, parallel patterns, and
control sequences, supporting three standard SFX and SFX/LS Interfaces. All SCANFLEX Controllers are
available in three performance classes (A/B/C). Refer to this product matrix.

SCAN BOOSTER

The ScanBooster™ product family compliments the spectrum of SCANFLEX® solutions in low to mid-range
performance applications. Available family members are ScanBooster PCI, ScanBooster USB, and
ScanBooster PP (for PCI bus, USB bus, and Parallel Port, respectively), supporting test, PLD programming
and Flash in-system programming.
The controller range provides optimal solutions in particular for standard applications with high cost
pressure and lower performance requirements.

ScanBooster/PCI and ScanBooster/USB are equipped with two independent TAPs and supports a
programmable TCK frequency up to 16MHz. Both TAP are independently programmable with regard to
output voltage, input voltage, output impedance, and input impedance. By utilizing GÖPEL electronic’s
CION™ ASICs as driver circuits, the TAPs have outstandingly good signal integrity in combination with
special features for interface protection. The controller offers additional resources such as dynamic 32bit
Parallel I/O, trigger signals, an SCP bus for system extensions and a specific interface for parallel gang
testing of up to eight UUT.

The ScanBooster/PCI and ScanBooster/USB are interface compatible to previous Boundary Scan controller
generations from GÖPEL electronic. The ScanBooster products are fully supported by the industry leading
Boundary Scan software SYSTEM CASCON™.

Main Features:

Boundary Scan controller for PCI or USB2.0, respectively, fully compliant with IEEE Std 1149.1
Provides 2 independent TAP with programmable I/O voltage and impedence
32 bit parallel Input Output Port (PIO)
2 analog I/O
Complete software support by SYSTEM CASCON™
Optional Accessories:

Various options available for the SCAN BOOSTER family include a Signal Access Board, a Scanpath
Extension Box, and a Gang Access Board.



Boundary Scan Coach, Scan Trainer Board

The Boundary Scan Coach, is a simple demo board that can be used in conjunction with SYSTEM CASCON
software or with a free, interactive learning software illustrating the basics of JTAG/Boundary Scan
technology and Boundary Scan applications in particular.


The Scan Trainer Board, a more complex demo board, can be used to learn more about the intricacies of
more advanced Boundary Scan applications found in practice.

We offer a 30 day evaluation of our software and hardware products, which includes your choice of demo
board to allow you to quickly familiarize yourself with the Boundary Scan technology and with GOEPEL
Boundary Scan software in particular. To request an evaluation system, please contact;

The third major component in a SCANFLEX® system is the optional I/O Module. These I/O modules are
controlled independently from any other resources in the system through the SFX/LS interface. If the
number of required SCANFLEX I/O Modules is very small (only 1 to 2 modules needed) the modules can be
plugged directly onto the TAP-Transceiver, eliminating any additional cabling. Alternatively, I/O modules can
be put into SCANFLEX Carriers, connected to the Controller or the TAP Transceiver through a SFX/LS cable
(0.5m/1.5ft, 1m/3ft, 3m/10ft, or 5m/15ft). SCANFLEX I/O Modules are used to extend the performance and
capabilities of the Boundary Scan system with additional test instruments and programming resources,
highly modular and scalable to match any specific test/ISP application. Custom specific modifications of
standard modules and development of custom modules are offered through GÖPEL electronic’s
engineering services. GÖPEL has also introduced the first SCANFLEX I/O modules with VarioCore™
technology.
As front-end, SCANFLEX® systems use
TAP-Transceiver modules. These modules are
connected to the controller with the SFX cable
(available in 2m/6ft, 5m/15ft, and 10m/33ft lengths).
TAP Transceiver modules convert the data coming
from the controller into respective operations of the
built-in or added-on resources. TAP signals are
provided through interchangeable TAP Interface
Cards (TIC), allowing a nearly infinite range of
front-end adaptations for various signal types,
signal conditioning, and integration environments,
including custom specific variants. SCANFLEX TAP
Transceivers are provided as desktop
configurations, as well as in rack-mountable
housings, and they can be adapted to custom
specifications. As a standard configuration, TAP
Transceivers also include analog and digital I/O
resources, typically at least one SFX I/O slot, and
one additional SFX/LS interface, providing ample of
resources for extended Boundary Scan test
solutions.
