Abstract
A method and a micro telecom computing architecture (MicroTCA) system for expanding MicroTCA are provided. On a backplane of a MicroTCA system, an advanced mezzanine card (AMC) connector and a joint test action group (JTAG) testing unit connector are set into at least one AMC slot. Setting the JTAG testing unit connector by using the existing AMC slot prevents occupying exclusive backplane space by setting another JTAG slot, and thus saves backplane space. Furthermore, after the test is completed, an AMC can be plugged in and the normal use of the AMC is not affected.
