Software Platform SYSTEM CASCON by GÖPEL electronic GmbH

Product Description

Owing to its open scalability, SYSTEM CASCON offers special flexibility. As a rule, seven parameters are defined. This principle enables the use of software throughout the entire product life cycle as well as user-friendly update or upgrade options.

The main features of our software concept are:
a fully integrated software platform
graphic project development with Mission Assist
maximum productivity due to intelligent tools
maximum safety for the test vectors
extended test depth for non-scannable circuitry
combination of state-of-the-art test and programming strategies
deep interaction and integration capability for other ATEs
maximum modularity and scalability
personalisation of the entire system (myCASCON)
support during the entire product life cycle
a portfolio containing more than 100 software tools and editions

Tool Suites for
- Boundary Scan Test:
This comprehensive suite contains powerful ATPG tools that generate de-buggable CASLAN source code and can also integrate external I/O channels. The PFD modules ensure clear error messages.
- Device Programming:
Regardless of whether complex flashes or PLDs are being used, this suite always offers the ideal tool for automated, fast and secure programming, for each application.
- Debugger/Visualizer:
This suite enables graphical analysis and validation of designs and project data during full cross-probing.
- Processor Emulation Test:
VarioTAP by GOEPEL electronic is revolutionary - the world's only technology for the fusion of Boundary Scan and Processor Emulation Test. This comprehensive suite bridges the gap towards achieving higher testing dynamics and also enables synchronisation with external I/O channels.
- Integrated Instruments:
Chip-embedded instruments can prevent the problems with access points prevalent in traditional external instruments, while SYSTEM CASCON is able to simultaneously access and control
both classes. This ability greatly improves the capacity and test coverage of the entire system.
- Functional I/O Test:
In addition to structural tests, SYSTEM CASCON also offers tools for functional testing. Here, too, CASLAN multipurpose control language is a key feature. To generate tests, one
can either import simulation vectors in IEEE 1445 format, or resort to behavior models in the CASCON library. Selected PXI or SCANFLEX modules by GOEPEL electronic, which can generate the vectors dynamically, can be used as external I/O drivers.
