Why GEB’s BSCAN Testing Stands Out
🔧 Over 25 years of expertise in Boundary Scan testing, covering a wide range of applications, devices, and industries.
🤝 Authorized JTAG Technologies Development Center for more than 20 years — a long-standing partnership that ensures our solutions are always aligned with the latest JTAG standards and capabilities.
📐 Proven methodology for developing high-quality BSCAN test fixtures, tailored to the complexity and constraints of each board.
🔁 Integration of pseudo-functional and full-speed functional tests via custom FPGA IP cores — extending the traditional JTAG environment into deeper, more dynamic testing layers.
🛠️ Proprietary netlist analysis tools designed to support fixture development and automate critical parts of the testing process, ensuring consistency and traceability.

What You Can Test with GEB BSCAN & Fixtures
Thanks to our comprehensive approach, our solutions offer high test coverage across:
–BSCAN-enabled components, using standard boundary scan chains.
–Non-BSCAN components (known as “clusters”), verified through indirect stimulation and observation techniques.
–Connector signals, regardless of the interface type or electrical level — including LVTTL, CMOS, differential (LVDS), and even high-speed CML and AC-coupled links.
We also offer the integration of:
🧠 Pseudo-functional testing inside the JTAG environment,
⚡ Full-speed functional testing via FPGA logic,
🔍 Analog component verification, such as ADCs and DACs, as well as the integrity of differential pairs (e.g., AC-coupled LVDS, CML, SERDES).

Fixture Design: Semi-Automated, Precise, and Modular
Our test fixtures are designed using semi-automated workflows developed and refined over the last two decades. The process begins with a deep netlist analysis of the Unit Under Test (UUT) and proceeds through:
1. Automated floorplanning of the fixture,
2. Automatic generation of schematic diagrams for the test interface.
Fixtures are modular and scalable, with all active logic centralized in dedicated modules called BSPIO (Boundary Scan Parallel I/O).

BSPIO Modules: The Heart of Our Test Fixtures
Each BSPIO module is capable of interfacing with a wide range of electrical standards:
-From single-ended digital I/O as low as 1.5V,
-To rugged discrete signals such as open/close at 28V — common in aerospace and industrial environments.
Every BSPIO module includes built-in self-test logic, allowing independent fixture validation before or during testing operations.

Two Fixture Architectures to Suit Any Workflow
We offer two base fixture architectures, depending on your integration needs:
🟩 Stand-Alone Fixtures
These are fully active and autonomous, equipped with integrated BSPIO modules and capable of operating independently from the central test station.
🟪 Passive Fixtures with Virginia Panel Interface
Designed for high-volume or multi-board test systems, these fixtures use a centralized BSPIO logic, housed in the main test station, to manage signal routing and diagnostics through a Virginia Panel interface.
