SmartDV’s JTAG Slave to APB Bridge IP is a silicon-proven solution that enables access to APB-based registers and peripherals via an external JTAG interface. It allows JTAG masters to perform read and write operations on APB-mapped resources, making it ideal for system configuration, debugging, and production test without requiring a full system boot.

Designed for flexibility, the IP core is highly configurable to meet specific design requirements, supporting both ASIC and FPGA implementations while optimizing for area, power, and performance. With support for IEEE 1149.1 through 1149.6, programmable APB address ranges, and simple integration into scan environments, the bridge streamlines control and access to low-bandwidth system components through a reliable JTAG interface.
