GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADATE207 is a timing generator and formatter for auto-
matic test equipment (ATE) equipment. The ADATE207 provides
four independent channels with a 100 MHz base vector rate of
timing and formatting for ATE digital pins. It interfaces between
the pattern memory,and the driver, comparator, and load (DCL)
chips for complete digital pins. The ADATE207 accepts up to
eight bits of pattern data per pin and can produce formatted
outputs and perform comparisons of DUT expected responses.
Each channel of the ADATE207 provides 256 selectable wave-
forms, wherein each waveform consists of up to four possible
events. Each event consists of a programmable timing edge and a
STIL-compatible (IEEE Standard 1450-1999) set.
Each timing edge generator can produce an edge with a span of
four periods with a 39.06 ps edge placement resolution. The delay
generators use a reference master clock of 100 MHz and provide
programmable delays based upon counts of the clock and a
compensated CMOS analog timing vernier. The programmable
delay generators can be additionally delayed by a global 8-bit
input value that is shared across all edges.
The format and compare logic support ×2 pin multiplexing to
allow the trading of pin count for speed.
Each channel provides a 4-bit DUT output capture supporting
mixed signal receive memory applications. The fail detection
logic includes a 32-bit fail accumulation register per channel.
An external TMU is supported with three 8-to-1 multiplexers.
This allows the dual comparator outputs of any pin to be
multiplexed to any of the three outputs: arm, start, or stop
signals.
