BSDL Files
Boundary scan description language (BSDL) files are necessary for the
application of boundary scan for board and system-level testing and
in-system programming. BSDL files are the electronic data sheets that
describe the IEEE 1149.1 or JTAG design within an IC, and are provided
by the IC vendors as part of their device specifications. Use BSDL files to
describe the test logic and generate a test for a loaded board.
IBIS Models
I/O buffer information specification (IBIS) models are used with various
IBIS-based simulators for transmission line simulation of digital systems.
These models accurately simulate I/O buffers, termination, and circuit
board traces. The simulation time is much faster than SPICE simulations,
because it is a behavioral model that relies on tabulated current versus
voltage characteristics. For more information about IBIS models, see the
main ANSI/EIA IBIS home page at:

CROSSCORE Tools Documentation
This documentation describes the various components of the
CROSSCORE software and hardware tools. Analog Devices offers a soft-
ware tools environment (VisualDSP++) and an assortment of hardware
development tools.
For software tools, each release of VisualDSP++ includes a complete set of
online manuals, describing the entire software development tool chain.
“Hardware Tools Documentation” on page 3-13 describes EZ-KIT Lite
evaluation systems, EZ-Board evaluation systems, extender boards, and
emulators.
