Acculogic Acquires VICTORY Boundary Scan Test Software

Markham, Ontario, June 10, 2004. Acculogic Corporation, a leader in limited access testing including boundary scan (IEEE 1149.1/JTAG) test and in-system programming (ISP), today announced an agreement with Teradyne, Inc. for a license to the source code for Teradyne's VICTORY boundary scan test generation software. Under the terms of the agreement, Acculogic will obtain VICTORY source code and license to VICTORY intellectual property for the purpose of enhancing its line of boundary scan test and on-board programming hardware and software. Future products derived as a result of this agreement will be marketed by both Acculogic and Teradyne.

VICTORY is currently the underlying software that powers Acculogic’s new ScanNavigator line of boundary scan test, flash memory and PLD programming products used in design and test. As a result of the agreement, boundary scan tests and programming algorithms developed by customers during initial product design and debug will now be completely re-usable at the production and field test stages on Teradyne board test systems.

“VICTORY has always been at the core of our boundary scan test product strategy”, said David Rolince, Product Marketing Manager for Acculogic’s boundary scan test line. “We are excited about rapidly expanding on that strategy, and offering all VICTORY customers the most complete boundary scan test and on-board programming solutions in the industry.”

"Teradyne and Acculogic have enjoyed a close and mutually beneficial relationship in the past," said Bob Fogarty, Marketing Manager, Assembly Test Division. "This agreement further strengthens Acculogic's line-up of advanced boundary-scan products and will expand the range of high-quality boundary-scan solutions available to Teradyne customers."

New product development plans are underway and will result in regular updates to VICTORY starting the latter part of this year.
