Current Standards Needs

Testing of assembled printed circuit boards and other products based on highly complex digital integrated circuits and high-density, surface-mounting assembly techniques has become extremely difficult due to test access limitations. IEEE 1149.1 is particularly important to industry as many other standards including IEEE 1500, IEEE 1532, IEEE 1687, and IEEE 1838, rely on this standard and its defined Test Access Port (TAP) to provide access to and control of features built into integrated circuits.

Standards Stakeholders

These standards are beneficial to, and should be of interest to:

IP (Intellectual Property component), IC (Integrated Circuit), board, and system designers;
ATE (Automated Test Equipment) tool and equipment vendors;
and developers and users of automation tools.
