Description
Edge142
Per Pin timing Deskew w 4x2
Cross Point Switch
Features
The Edge142 is a 4 X 2 cross point switch with output
edge deskew capability. Manufactured in a high
performance bipolar process, it is designed primarily for
channel deskew applications in VLSI and Mixed-Signal
test equipment.
Any of the four input signals may be selected as the
source for either output. The 142 performs test head
multiplexing, adjacent channel multiplexing, and signal
buffering for both the drive and receive signals, in addition
to timing deskew.
• Very Narrow (<1 ns) Pulse Width Capability
• Fmax > 850 MHz
• Independent Delay Adjustments for Positive and
Negative Transitions
• Delay Range of 1.5 ns
• Trailing Edge Adjust Range of 300 ps
• Small Footprint: 52-pin MQFP Package
(10 X 10 mm) with Internal Heat Spreader or
Die Form
The delay value (and resolution) is controlled via an
external voltage DAC. The delay element is designed
specifically to be monotonic and very stable while
delaying a very narrow pulse over a limited delay range.
Applications
The part offers separate delays for rising vs. falling edges.
The rising edge delay range is 1.5 ns and the falling
edge adjustment range is 300 ps.
The Edge142 is also well suited for 1:2 or 1:4 signal
fanout applications that require:
- multiple signal sources
- output enable / disable
- timing deskew on the output
signals.
• Automatic Test Equipment
– Per pin deskew in VLSI, Mixed-Signal, and Memory
Testers
– Clock Distribution with timing adjustment
