NOTE: Due to hardware’s limitation, Vector Test is only implemented on 24- pin or less devices.
During the vector test, TopMax applies high and low signals to the input pins of a tested PLD and observes signals at the output pins. The output results are compared to the expected results from the test vectors. Any difference will show up as an error message.
The following are valid characters for test vectors:
0Apply input logic low (Vil) to an input pin
1Apply input logic high (Vih) to an input pin
C Clock an input pin (Vil, Vih, Vil)
F | Float pin |
N | Power pin or untested output pin |
V | VCC pin |
XDon't care: output values are not tested
G GND pin
K Clock an inverted input pin (Vih, Vil, Vih)
H Expected result on output pin is Vih
L Expected result on output pin is Vil
Z Test for high impedance
Optional Operation
X value | Optional value of “don’t care” |
Vcc | Test Vcc value on Vcc pin |
Delay | Test period of each vector in |
Test / IC Test
This operation tests TTL or CMOS logic devices according to the test patterns stored in the test pattern library.
