description

The ’BCT8244A scan test devices with octal

buffers are members of the Texas Instruments

SCOPE™ testability integrated-circuit family. This

family of devices supports IEEE Standard

1149.1-1990 boundary scan to facilitate testing of

complex circuit-board assemblies. Scan access

to the test circuitry is accomplished via the 4-wire

test access port (TAP) interface.

In the normal mode, these devices are functionally equivalent to the ’F244 and ’BCT244 octal buffers. The test

circuitry can be activated by the TAP to take snapshot samples of the data appearing at the device terminals

or to perform a self test on the boundary-test cells. Activating the TAP in normal mode does not affect the

functional operation of the SCOPE™ octal buffers.

In the test mode, the normal operation of the SCOPE™ octal buffers is inhibited and the test circuitry is enabled

to observe and control the I/O boundary of the device. When enabled, the test circuitry can perform

boundary-scan test operations, as described in IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990.
