ICA Description Table The ICA Description Table in Figure 3-2 shows the connectors used for the
Test System Interface and Figure 3-3 shows the connector type and slots
used for the Interface Connector Assembly (ICA) of the Mass Interconnect.
This helps determine what connector is needed for the fixture to mate with
the connectors on the Test System Interface or Mass Interconnect. This
information is mainly for the fixture builder, but can be helpful in
determining how to connect resources.
Connector # (Test System Interface only) - the connector number used for
the connections to the Test System Interface.
Slot # (Mass Interconnect only) - the ICA slot number of the Mass
Interconnect used for the connector.
Connector (Mass Interconnect only) - the product number of the
connector used by the Mass Interconnect (i.e.,Agilent 91421B for the
general-purpose connector and Agilent 91423A for the high-power (coax)
connector). The high-power (coax) connector is used for high-power
connections, typically loads. The general-purpose connector is used for all
other applications.
Notes - The notes section is used to describe what resources are available on
the connector.
Load Wiring Table This table describes the loads in the load box. Check this table to determine
if the load required for a test is already configured in the load box. If not, add
the description of the new load that will need to be added to the system. For
instructions on connecting the loads, refer to the Agilent Switch/Load Unit
User’s Manual. Each column of the table is described below.
Slot # - describes the load cards position in the Switch/Load Unit.
