56 Planning System Testplans Chapter 3
Card Type - describes the type of load card: 8-channel, 16-channel, or
24-channel. For a description of the three different cards and their
capabilities, see the Agilent Switch/Load Unit User’s Manual.
Channel # - the number of the channel on the load card.
Value - enter the load value (resistance, capacitance, inductance) or the load
device.
Current Sense Resistor Value - the value of the current sense resistor
configured in the load. The factory installed default value is 0.050Ω .
ICA ID - the ICA connection for this load.
NO Load Bus - describes where the normally open connection has been
jumpered. This is frequently a power bus.
NC Load Bus - describes where the normally closed connection has been
jumpered. This is frequently the ground power bus.
8 Ch Bridge Jumper - shows which channels have been jumpered together
if the Agilent E6175A 8-Channel load card is used in a bridge configuration.
Assigning
Resources
To assign the resources for a testplan, you need to complete the Agilent
TS-5400 Fixturing Worksheet (described later in this chapter) by looking at
each test individually and performing the following steps.
Note The Test System Interface uses the nomenclature: TCn.RowCol where n
is either 1 or 2 (TC1 or TC2), Row is A through CC, and Col is column 1
through 6. For example, TC2.Z3 is Test Connector 2, row Z, column 3.
Refer to the Express Connect Test System Interface Wiring Guide for more
information.
The Mass Interconnect uses the following nomenclature to identify a
specific pin the mass interconnect: ColConPin where Col is the column
of the mass interconnect ITA (1 to 21), Con is either the top connector (A)
or the bottom connector (B), and Pin is the actual pin number (1 - 96).
Since the high-power (coax) connectors only have one grouping of
connections, always use connector A to describe the connection. For
example, 2A7 refers to the second column, top connector, and 7th pin.
Refer to the Agilent E6170 Mass Interconnect For the Agilent TS-5400 Test
System User’s Manual for more information.
1. Enter required resources, for each UUT pin used in the test, in the
Load Value and Other Resource columns of the worksheet.
2. Look at the resource connection information listed in the Test
Description Worksheet and describe it in the corresponding mass
interconnect ID columns in the fixture table.
