Editor seems to have eaten a few lines here it goes again


I am using JTAG parts from TI, Xilinx and Motorola in a system 
test application.

Don't yet have a lot of experience with JTAG except that 
the costs are still a little hard to justify in extremely price
sensitive applications unless: 

1.  You are able to do away with somephase of testing ( ICT - 
    or some functional) 
2. Its use in the field can be demonstrated to save maintenance costs.

It is still a kind of chicken and egg problem in that without it 
being implemented you are not going to prove 1 or 2.
       
Can't give out source code, sorry.
