He may have meant doing JTAG boundary scans. I would think that if you can program flash/eproms, that there is enough control to do a scan. It depends on whether the BDI allows address/data level control in some sort of scripting language.

No. On MPC8xx you see a BDM interface. Essentially this is a way to communicate with the CPU, i. e. to insert instructions into the CPU core, have them executed, and get data back. This way you can of course read and write memory, too, or execute a flash programming algorithm.

You cannot do anything like a boundary scan over BDM.

Best regards,
