Edge6435/6436 Per-Pin Electronics panion DAC .. TEST AND MEASUREMENT PRODUCTS Description The Edge6435/6436 is a low-cost, 40-channel, monolithic ATE level DAC solution manufactured in a wide-voltage bi-CMOS process. The Edge6435/6436 Features independent buffered voltage and current outputs that are serially programmed and can be used to provide all of the reference levels required for up to 8 channels of pin electronics in an ATE system. Designated Voltage Output DACs - Wide Voltage Range (16.75V) - Adjustable Full-Scale Range - Adjustable Minimum Offset Voltage - 13-bit Resolution - 11-bit Accuracy (E6436) - 10-bit Accuracy (E6435) Selectable Voltage/Current Output DACs - Wide Voltage/Current Range (16.75V/2 m A) - Adjustable Full-Scale Range - Adjustable Minimum Offset - Configurable as either Voltage or Current Output - 13-bit Resolution - 11-bit Accuracy (E6436) - 10-bit Accuracy (E6435) Designated Current Output DACs - 1.6 m A Range - Adjustable Full-Scale Range - 6-bit Resolution On-chip, digital storage of offset and gain calibration coefficients allow the E6435/6436 output levels to be programmed using “Ideal Code”, helping to reduce some of the plexity and time normally associated with programming level DACs in ATE systems. PINCAST allows the Edge6435/6436 to further reduce this plexity and time by allowing channels across multiple Edge6435/6436 devices to be digitally assigned to up to 8 distinct sets that can be addressed and programmed with a limited number of instructions. The Edge6435/6436 Features 2 ranks of input latches into each DAC, whereby all DAC values may be updated at one time. For Automated Test Equipment, the Edge6435/6436 can support Pin Electronics and Parametric Measurement Units whose outputs are in the range of - 3.25V to +13V, and Driver Super Voltages to +13V after calibration. It provides 10 or 5 per pin levels for 4 or 8 channels respectively. The Edge6435/6436 is designed such that DACs may be shared...
