SYSTEM CASCON

JTAG / boundary scan software that sets quality standards

The key for successfully utilizing JTAG / boundary scan is determined by the quality of the applied software - today more than ever. Grown within the innovations across nearly two decades, SYSTEM CASCON is the most utilized JTAG / boundary scan software platform worldwide. More than 1,000 design and test engineers, quality managers, service technicians and system diagnosticians use this unique integrated software environment every day.
Today, SYSTEM CASCON is available in its fourth generation and is the only JTAG / boundary scan software that can claim the status of an open, graphical JTAG / boundary scan operating system. Its architecture thoroughly implements GOPEL electronic's philosophy of multi-dimensional JTAG / boundary scan, eclipsing other solutions in regard of test coverage and system functionality by combining various test, programming and emulation methods with native JTAG / boundary scan procedures.

Features that make the Difference to other JTAG/Boundary Scan Software Solutions

	Scalable high-performance platform with more than 40 integrated tools, central project data base and intuitive user interface		Simple, fast and goal-oriented project development by intelligent tools and automated system processes
	Integrated safety functions avoid hardware damaging scan vectors and guarantee safe test programs		Interactive Boundary Scan visualization on layout, schematic and logic level for graphical analyzing and debugging
	Support of test and programming strategies for internal and external instrumentations beyond Boundary Scan		Extended test coverage and precise fault diagnostic by complete inclusion of non-Boundary Scan circuits

The completely integrated architecture of SYSTEM CASCON provides the flexibility needed to adapt the software configuration to completely different target applications and environments. In this regard, so-called Enable Codes are used as keys to activate or deactivate specific tools and modules of the system.
For the user this approach provides enormous benefits over multi-package solutions since the software configuration can be changed easily and quickly. The handling of updates and upgrades is extremely simple, and problems due to incompatible tools are prevented. Software packages designed for laboratory, production, and field service are available in various performance classes (Editions) as Development Stations (DS) and Test/Execution Stations (TS/ES). Pure in-system programming (ISP) applications can be realized with CASCON POLARIS Editions, while CASCON GALAXY supports both ISP and test procedures. The extensive CASCON Application Programming Interface (CAPI) enables powerful integrations. Floating Licenses provide extreme efficiency with Multi-Seat and Multi-Tooling capabilities.

Fusion of JTAG Emulation and Boundary Scan

VarioTAP is a revolutionary technology for pattern streaming on TAP (Test Access Port) signals compliant with IEEE Std. 1149.1. The technology utilizes on-chip emulation resources accessible in many micro-processors and micro-controllers through a IEEE 1149.1 compatible JTAG Port. The VarioTAP principle was specifically developed for the integrated Boundary Scan software, SYSTEM CASCON, and enables the complete fusion of Emulation tools with test and In-System-Programming (ISP) applications.
The VarioTAP specific adaptive streaming showcases the dynamic synthesis of Emulation vectors and Boundary Scan vectors, supporting new test strategies such as Interlaced JTAG/Boundary Scan Tests and In-System (Processor) Emulation Test / ISP.
