SR192A Development System

The SR192A Development System is an integrated "project" oriented software system allowing complete programming of the SR192A's timing, table, and sequencing functions.

The SR192A Development System can be used standalone or interactively with the SR192A. The timing portion has "wizards" to generate timing set templates based on the installed timing modules and the desired data rate. The table portion uses signal UUT names in its underlying processing so pin or group reassignments will not affect previously generated table or group data or timing values. The sequence portion supports conditional jumping, subroutines, looping, etc.

The SR192A Development System also has built-in table data import export utilities for simple hex and IEEE STD 1364-1995 Value Change Dump (VCD). Most Computer Aided Design (CAD) software simulation and test bench tools generate and import VCD files thereby providing a bridge between design and test.

Interactive debug features include the ability to graphically modify, execute and evaluate the test results. Measured signal miscompares with expected values are highlighted on the graphical table display.

Programs developed with the SR192A Development System easily integrate into a wide range of application development environments (ADE) such as NI/CVI, NI/LabView, MSC++, VB, Agilent-VEE, etc.

Functional Test Software

Talon Instruments has a partnership arrangement with Serendipity Systems of Sedona, AZ. This company has produced custom GUI interfaces, test programming , post-processing tools, open architecture instrument integration strategies and fault isolation software. They have particular expertise in test executive design and graphical display integration.

Serendipity Systems has developed the following companion software packages for the Talon SR192 and SR192A:

Fault Isolation Tool Set (FITS) -- Automated fault isolation tool set including a dynamic fault dictionary, guided probe and graphic display utility.

LASAR Simulation Import Tools -- Import tool set that imports LASAR-generated digital tests to operate with SR192 Development System project files and FITS.

SR192 Programming Library -- A standard DLL library that provides a way to build table data programmatically using signal-based constructs such as IH (input high), IL (input low), etc.

SR192 Project to Text Converter -- A tool for converting Windows-based project file to operate on a UNIX based test system.
