The Fast Access Controller (FAC) is a fast, efficient solution engineered for designers of processors such as microcontrollers, CPUs, and DSPs, looking to enhance Design-for-Test capabilities and improve performance. This controller significantly accelerates the process of programming on-board Flash memory, especially when it links with FPGA, delivering rapid data transfer via the JTAG 1149.1 bus.
FAC is part of Intellitech's patented TEST-IP Family and answers the market demand for improved support and programming performance in production settings. The solution integrates seamless FLASH programming data transfer, reducing programming times substantially compared to traditional methods. This boosts overall production efficiency and ensures reliable functionality in testing environments.
Incorporated within the Eclipse Test Development environment, FAC provides a high-speed interface through a small bitstream, facilitating the quick loading of FLASH programming data. It broadly reduces cost and enhances system reliability, pushing the boundaries of what can be achieved in high-volume manufacturing environments.
