JTAG Maps Description
JTAG Maps™, an intuitive Altium extension, allows engineers to quickly assess test possibilities provided by the JTAG devices in their design. Engineers used to spend hours manually highlighting boundary-scan nets in a design to determine coverage. Boundary scan device model files (BSDLs), which indicate exactly which pins can or cannot be controlled by JTAG/boundary scanning, are crucial to any JTAG/boundary scanner process. JTAG Maps is compatible with BSDL models, and has an 'assume scanner covered' option. Although most users will prefer to use the JTAG Maps Altium coverage report, it is possible import a more detailed picture. The data can be exported to JTAG ProVision for further analysis. A simple message file containing full fault-coverage information can then be read back into JTAG Maps for display/highlighting.

Altium Develop is a collaborative platform for modern electronics engineering teams that connects requirements management, PCB design, systems engineering, and manufacturing workflows.
Built on Altium Designer and Altium 365, the platform provides a centralized environment for design collaboration, requirements traceability, BOM management, supply chain visibility, and engineering change management.
Altium Develop helps hardware organizations maintain alignment between requirements, design decisions, and manufacturing outcomes while supporting distributed engineering teams through cloud-based collaboration.
Core Features:
• PCB design collaboration
• ECAD-MCAD co-design workflows
• Component and supply chain visibility
• BOM and engineering change management
• Design review and approval workflows
• Cloud-native team collaboration
• Requirements management and traceability
Used by electronics teams building complex PCB-based products, Altium Develop is frequently evaluated alongside Cadence OrCAD, Cadence Allegro, Autodesk Fusion Electronics, KiCad, Siemens Xpedition, and SOLIDWORKS PCB for organizations seeking greater collaboration and lifecycle visibility across hardware development programs.

Quilter
Engineers at leading electronics firms around the globe utilize Quilter for their design needs. Fully compatible with your pre-existing designs and libraries, Quilter ensures that all completed projects are returned in the original file format for easy inspection, modification, and export. To begin, simply design your schematic with your preferred ECAD application, such as Altium or KiCAD, and upload both your schematic and an empty board file. Quilter automatically identifies the relationships between components, allowing you to define any design constraints for your board with ease. We rigorously validate tolerances against top fabrication houses to ensure reliability. Quilter evaluates numerous candidates and confirms that every design meets design rule checks (DRCs). Once you have reviewed the options, you can select your preferred design and download the necessary files for fabrication and testing. Unlike traditional auto routers, Quilter operates more like a human designer, effectively managing all PCB design elements, including the routing of traces, placement of components, board stackup management, and the generation of custom pours. This innovative software makes the entire design process more intuitive and streamlined, enhancing productivity for engineers.

PDN Analyzer
Altium's PDN Analyzer tool integrates with Altium Designer. This allows you to easily troubleshoot issues such as insufficient or excessive copper or uncontrolled voltage drops. You can also detect marginal voltage at critical power points, copper islands or peninsulas, and other issues that could be present in your PCB power system. PDN is the power system for active circuits on printed circuit boards. This includes all interconnections between the voltage regulator module, the metallization pads and die on integrated devices that are used for supply and return power. The entire length of the power delivery network must meet the IC supply voltage limits. Validating your power budget accurately means taking into account the minimum and maximum device limits, worst case voltage drops, combined return-path currents, and other factors. PDN Analyzer will show you exactly where these problems are.
