CHAIN Statement

Defines the devices in the scan chain

CHAIN    <DEVICETYPE>.<PACKAGE>.<ALIASNAME>,...,<DEVICETYPE>.<PACKAGE>.<ALIASNAME>

Arguments

DEVICETYPE

               PartName of the device. Part must exist in the Atomic Part Library

PACKAGE

               Device Package. The package must match one of the list of packages defined  for that part.

ALIASNAME

               The name by which we will access the device. The Aliasname should be used from now on as this avoids confusion where there is more than one device on the chain of the same type

Remarks

The first device listed should be the first device in the chain i.e. the one attached directly to TDI.

Example

In this example 3 devices are listed in the chain. This chain defined the scan chain that is on the Atomic Training Platform
