  • Patent number: 10393790
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for testing connectivity. The method is applied to an electronic equipment which is disposed include two test units (e.g. network interface controller, RJ-45 connector) and a network transformer. The test unit couple to the network transformer so that can send a high frequency test signal or a low frequency test signal to the network transformer respectively. When the test unit receives a low frequency response signal, it means correspond internal circuitry of the network transformer does not have a open circuit fault. When the test unit does not receive a high frequency response signal, it means correspond pins of the network transformer does not have a short circuit fault.

  • Publication number: 20120131403
    Abstract: A multi-chip test system and a method thereof utilize a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) to be connected in series to multiple chips having a Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) interface for function inspection. The test system includes a device to-be-tested and a control device. The device to-be-tested includes multiple chips, a CPLD, and a second JTAG interface. Each of the chips has a first JTAG interface. The CPLD is coupled to the chips through the first JTAG interfaces. The second JTAG interface is connected to the CPLD. The control device is connected to the second JTAG interface and used for sending a switching instruction to the CPLD. In the test method, firstly, a switching instruction is received to select a chip to-be-tested; then, a test signal is sent to the chip to-be-tested according to the chip to-be-tested; and the chip to-be-tested transfers a test result back to a CPLD according to the test signal.
