Photo shows Mike Jones, hardware manager at TVonics Solutions TVonics Solutions, the British digital television device manufacturer, has selected the XJTAG boundary scan development system to debug, test and programme its range of energy efficient digital TV products. TVonics holds a significant share of the UK set top box market selling devices under its own brand, as well as making products for retailers including DSGi, Tesco, Argos and Marks & Spencer. TVonics was founded in late 2004 by a former Sony design team. The XJTAG development system is being used by engineers at TVonics' design facility in Bridgend, South Wales to speed up debug and test of ball grid array (BGA) populated printed circuits boards containing a wide range of electronic devices including MPEG source decoder chips, Flash memory, Ethernet controllers, I2C devices, and termination resistors. TVonics has also integrated XJTAG with the production JIG tester at its' contract manufacturing partner's site (Sony Manufacturing in Pencoed, South Wales) to enable products to be tested and programmed in-line in one single process. Mike Jones, hardware manager at TVonics Solutions, said: "The XJTAG Professional system is helping us to further shorten our already challenging development cycles, which is so critical in the fast-changing consumer electronics market." "Having floating licences has also been a major benefit as it means the system is not tied to one computer and can be moved around the lab or to another site as and when required," he added. The XJTAG development system is a solution for debugging, testing and programming electronic printed circuits boards and systems. An XJTAG spokesman said: "This is an important deal for XJTAG as it demonstrates XJTAG's suitability for consumer electronics products as well as its versatility - the product is being used throughout the product lifecycle to debug, test and programme TVonics' digital TV products."
