Product Summary

The ACT8990 is a test-bus controller (TBC). The ACT8990 is a member of the Texas Instruments SCOPEE testability integrated-circuit family. This family of components supports IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990 (JTAG) boundary scan to facilitate testing of complex circuit-board assemblies. The ACT8990 differs from other SCOPEE integrated circuits. Their function is to control the JTAG serial-test bus rather than being target boundary-scannable devices. The required signals of the JTAG serial-test bus-test clock (TCK), test mode select (TMS), test data input (TDI), and test data output (TDO) can be connected from the TBC to a target device without additional logic.
