Two chances to win a Raspberry Pi at Embedded World 2013 with XJTAG
Cambridge, England, 7th February 2013 — Visit the XJTAG stand 4-347 at Embedded World and guess the code to 'crack the safe' and win yourself a Raspberry Pi. Or – if you can't wait that long – enter our online competition now at www.xjtag.com/win and use the reference code PI768. Every winning combination gets the winner their own 'byte'-sized computer.
The Raspberry Pi is a perfect example of the issues of testing electronics today. 'The Raspberry Pi has a processor that comes in a ball grid array (BGA) package in the centre of the board', observes Simon Payne, XJTAG's CEO. 'An increasing number of components are now coming in these packages, which are difficult to test using traditional methods because you can't reach any of the connections.' The electronics industry is not blind to these problems, however – a test-access protocol, JTAG boundary scan, is now built into many components so they can be tested during design, development and manufacture. XJTAG – an industry leading supplier of JTAG boundary scan software and hardware solutions - allows engineers to test and programme both JTAG and non-JTAG devices on their boards throughout the product life cycle.
In today's marketplace, getting it right first time is crucial to reducing overall costs and product lead times. An increasing number of businesses are using XJTAG from very early on in the design stage, saving themselves time and money.
XJTAG is offering a free trial of its industry-leading boundary scan solution so now is your chance to find out how it can help you. Visit us at stand 4-347 at Embedded World 2013, or contact XJTAG today to arrange a demonstration - or take a free trial and we will even do the setup on your electronics for free. www.xjtag.com.
