Create a PCB and Test Fixture


Before starting test development, the first step to successful in-system programming
is the proper layout of the board and the subsequent creation of the test fixture.
Creating the PCB
The following recommendations highlight important areas of PCB design issues:
■ The TCK signal trace should be treated as carefully as a clock tree. TCK is the clock
for the entire Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) chain of devices. These devices are
edge-triggered on the TCK signal, so it is imperative that this signal be protected
from high-frequency noise and have good signal integrity. Ensure that the signal
meets the tR and tF parameters specified in the device data sheet.
■ Add a pull-down resistor to TCK. The TCK signal should be held low through a
pull-down resistor in-between PCF downloads. For more information about
pattern capture format (PCF) downloads, refer to “Step 2: Create a Serial Vector
Format File”. You should hold TCK low because the Agilent 3070 drivers go into a
“high-Z” state in-between tests and briefly drive low as the next PCF is applied.
When the TCK line “floats”, the programming data stream is corrupted and the
device is not programmed correctly.
■ Provide VCC and GND test access points for the nails of the test fixture. During
operation, there should be enough access points to allow quiet PCB operation.
Having too few access points results in a noisy system that can disrupt JTAG
scans.
■ Turn off on-board oscillators. During programming, on-board oscillators should
have the ability to be electrically turned off to reduce system noise.
■ Add external resistors to pull outputs to a defined logic level during
programming.
1 Output pins are tri-stated during programming and are pulled up by a weak internal
resistor. However, Altera recommends that signals requiring a pre-defined level be
externally forced to the appropriate level using an external resistor.
f For more information about board design for ISP, refer to the In-System
Programmability Guidelines for MAX II Devices chapter in the MAX II Device Handbook.
Creating the Fixture
Providing a clean interface between the test fixture and the target board is essential for
successful in-system programming. To provide a clean interface, use short wires in the
test fixture to improve the TCK connection. Longer wires can introduce inductive
noise into the system, which can disrupt programming. The wire connecting TCK
should be no longer than 1 inch. Use the Agilent Fixture Consultant to manage the
layout and creation of the test fixture (see the Agilent Board Test Family Manual).

Perhitungan & Cara Merubah Kumparan Blender Dari 220 V Menjadi 12 V

          Seperti yang telah dijelaskan pada buku “menggulung motor listrik arus bolak-balik, servis peralatan listrik rumah tangga kelompok penggerak dan perbaikan peralatan listrik pertukangan”, bahwa motor penggerak yang digunakan pada perlatan listrik rumah tangga dan pertukangan seperti blender, mixer, bor tembak, gerinda dsb menggunakan jenis motor universal. Motor universal adalah jenis motor listrik yang dapat disuplai dengan sumber listrik arus bolak-balik (AC) dan arus searah (DC). Jadi peralatan-peralatan listrik rumah tangga dan pertukangan tersebut yang biasanya kita suplai dengan sumber listrik AC dari PLN atau Genset sebesar 220 V sebenarnya dapat juga kita suplai dengan sumber listrik DC yang tentunya tegangan juga harus sama yakni 220 V.           Yang menjadi permasalahan bagaimana kalau peralatan listrik rumah tangga atau pertukangan tersebut, sebagai contoh misalkan blender yang ingin digunakan atau dioper...

BT-BASIC command line

8.8       At the BT-BASIC command line type the command  msi  and the directory path, then press the “ENTER” key on the keyboard.  Example:                   msi ‘/hp3070/boards/aspect/main’ 8.9       At the BT-BASIC command line type the command  get ‘testplan’ and press the   ENTER” key on the keyboard.  You should now see the body of the testplan file displayed in the work space of the BT-BASIC window. 8.10     Some of the most frequently used BT-BASIC commands used are:

Testhead

4.3         Testhead The testhead is that portion of the tester that supports the PIN, ASRU and Controller cards.   The testhead is divided into two BANKS and each BANK is divided into two MODULES, see figure 2 below.  Bank 1 contains modules 0 and 1, bank 2 contains modules 2 and 3.  The test fixtures are placed on the banks of the tester and locked down for board testing.  The testhead cards interface to the test fixture through the spring loaded pogo pin “nails” at the top edge on each of these card types. 4.4       Support Bay The support bay is a stand-alone cabinet that houses the power supplies for the Unit Under Test.  This bay also houses the test station power distribution unit and test station controller on earlier models. 4.5       Emergency Shutdown Switch The emergency shutdown switch is the large red button located at the lower left corne...

Kelebihan dan Kekurangan Saluran Listrik Jenis Saluran Udara dan Saluran Bawah Tanah

Berdasarkan pemasangannya,   saluran distribusi dibagi menjadi dua kategori, yaitu : saluran udara (overhead line) merupakan sistem penyaluran tenaga listrik melalui kawat penghantar yang ditompang pada tiang listrik. Sedangkan saluran bawah tanah (underground cable) merupakan sistem penyaluran tenaga listrik melalui kabel-kabel yang ditanamkan di dalam tanah. 1.    Saluran Bawah Tanah (Underground Lines) Saluran distribusi yang menyalurkan energi listrik melalui kabel yang ditanam didalam tanah. Kategori saluran distribusi seperti ini adalah yang favorite untuk pemasangan di dalam kota, karena berada didalam tanah, maka tidak mengganggu keindahan kota dan juga tidak mudah terjadi gangguan akibat kondisi cuaca atau kondisi alam. Namun juga memilik kekurangan, yaitu mahalnya biaya investasi dan sulitnya menentukan titik gangguan dan perbaikannya. Kedua cara penyaluran memiliki keuntungan dan kerugian masing-masing. Keuntungan yang dapat diperoleh dari suatu jaringan bawah...
