Asset’s ScanWorks supports Avago ASICs

-- Test & Measurement World, 8/21/2008 6:10:00 AM

Asset InterTech has announced that it has reached an agreement under which ScanWorks, the company’s platform for open embedded instrumentation tools, will support Avago Technologies’ embedded-instrumentation technology for selected ASICs that target high-performance server applications.

Initially, ScanWorks will support Avago ASICs featuring Serdes cores that are compatible with Intel’s Quick Path Interconnect (QPI) and Intel’s Interconnect Built In Self Test (IBIST) technologies. ScanWorks automates the analysis of data generated by the IBIST function, providing access to IBIST data from a QPI Serdes-equipped Avago ASIC and to IBIST data from an Intel chipset.

Tim Caffee, VP of I/O instrumentation for Asset, said he expects other semiconductor companies to deploy Intel IBIST, adding that Asset is well positioned to support them as well.

ScanWorks support for Avago ASICs that feature Intel QPI Serdes will be available as an add-on module to ScanWorks during the fourth quarter of 2008 at a price of $8250.
