SET MEASURE TIME

 

 

SET MEASURE TIME

Scope: Sets timing information

Usage

SET MEASURE TIME time_value_list

Description

Sets output pin measure time for each timeframe.

The SET MEASURE TIME command lets you specify measure times for all output pins of a device during each timeframe in a test cycle. The measure time in a timeframe must occur before the force, bidirectional force, and skew force times in the next timeframe.

If you only specify the SET FORCE TIME command or the SET MEASURE TIME command but not both of these commands within your timing file, FlexTest assigns both the force and measure events to the same time.

Note that this timing file command is similar to the MEASURE_PO statement that FastScan uses in its TIMEPLATE description.

Arguments

time_value_list

A set of time values indicating when the output pin measures should occur. The number of list values must equal the number of timeframes in the test cycle, as specified by the Set Test Cycle application command description in Chapter 2. These time values must occur between the force in one timeframe and the force in the next timeframe.

Example

The following timing file command specifies output pin measures at 15, 38, 65, and 135ns after the start of the test cycle.

SET MEASURE TIME 15 38 65 135;
