The 'ACT8997 are members of the Texas Instruments
SCOPETM testability integrated-circuit family. This family
of components facilitates testing of complex circuit-board
assemblies.
The 'ACT8997 enhance the scan capability of TI's
SCOPETM family by allowing augmentation of a system's
primary scan path with secondary scan paths (SSPs), which can be
individually selected by the 'ACT8997 for inclusion in the primary
scan path. These devices also provide buffering of test signals to
reduce the need for external logic.
By loading the proper values into the instruction register and
data registers, the user can select up to four SSPs to be included in
a primary scan path. Any combination of the SSPs can be selected at a
time. Any of the device's six data registers or the instruction
register can be placed in the device's scan path, i.e., placed
between test data input (TDI) and test data output (TDO) for
subsequent shift and scan operations.
All operations of the device except counting are synchronous to
the test clock pin (TCK). The 8-bit programmable up/down counter can
be used to count transitions on the device condition input (DCI) pin
and output interrupt signals via the device condition output (DCO)
pin. The device can be configured to count on either the rising or
falling edge of DCI.
The test access port (TAP) controller is a finite-state machine
compatible with IEEE Standard 1149.1.
The SN54ACT8997 is characterized for operation over the full
military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The
SN74ACT8997 is characterized for operation from 0°C to
70°C.
