Beyond the Boundary

The Chinese Lunar New Year (CNY) is just five days away and spring cleaning is currently underway in my house. Amidst the bustling activities in preparing for this festival, I decided to start writing Chapter 9 on Other Techniques of PCB diagnostics. My engineer friend is tied up after coming back from a long holiday and can only give me the materials I need after the CNY. Oh well...

What are the other techniques that I will be exploring? For sure, JTAG is one of them. Another two more will be AOI and AXI, and I will include a comparison of these two. There is something about virtual instruments but I've yet to decide whether to include it in this chapter.

Here's a two-page sample for Chapter 9:

Incidentally, my friend's company ABI Electronics also carries a JTAG diagnostic tool for which I've also requested for a case study. If he can provide that, it would be a good illustration to my collection of examples in this upcoming book.

I will try to squeeze some time to write during this busy festive season, so stay tune for more updates.
