IJTAG IP Integration Environment
Tessent IJTAG - Mentor Graphics Corp. (Mentor)
To manage the complex requirements of testing a heterogeneous set of embedded IP, the industry developed IEEE P1687 (IJTAG). It standardizes a language for describing the IP interface and how IPs are connected to each other. It also introduces a language that defines how patterns that operate or test the IP are to be described. IEEE P1687 draws a clear line between what must be covered by the standard and what is better left to the ingenuity of the tool developers.
