SystemBIST is a cutting-edge solution designed for flexible FPGA configuration and JTAG embedded test. It is a complete plug-and-play device providing a code-less configuration methodology. SystemBIST caters to high-quality products that require self-testable and in-field reconfigurable capabilities, independent of vendor-specific limitations. This enables devices to support IEEE 1532 and IEEE 1149.1 compliant FPGAs and CPLDs, allowing seamless integration across various systems.
This robust BIST solution eliminates the complexity of traditional firmware-based tests by embedding JTAG-derived test patterns directly onto the PCB. Stored into system FLASH memory, these patterns enable thorough testing anywhere the PCB is powered, thus extending the test environment into the field without the need for additional test equipment. The deterministic BIST uniquely positions SystemBIST as a reliable solution compared to traditional methods requiring substantial engineering and testing resources.
SystemBIST also incorporates anti-tamper technologies, featuring on-chip security identifiers to deter cloning and maintain system integrity. This security feature, alongside its embedded self-test capabilities, makes SystemBIST ideal for mission-critical applications demanding reliable performance and security.
