Controllers
onTAP’s THREE TAP CONNECT JTAG
-
Connect the TAP CONNECT JTAG Controller to your application with either the Xilinx ribbon cable, flying leads, or Altera style adaptors. The onTAP TAP CONNECT Controller automatically senses and adjusts to target I/O voltages and interfaces to devices operating at 1.8 to 5.0 VDC for the standard controller, or 0.99 to 3.6 VDC for the low voltage controller, using the VREF voltage from the target chain. If there is no VREF available, you can set the voltage for the target application from the TAP CONNECT Controller. This facilitates easy configuration to many different JTAG ports, which is helpful in design and manufacturing.
