For example, many current development boards allowstudents to program and debug the system without a stand-alone JTAG1 programmer, whichgreatly reduces the cost to the student and alleviates the university from supporting costly toolsfor student use. (JTAG is a common interface for testing and programming digital systems.)Many manufacturers provide free versions of their software development tools for student use.These tools are often limited, in project size or time scale, but most can support studentprojects through their undergraduate education. Many manufacturers also offer universityprograms, where full versions of the tools may be purchased at a reduced cost by
