Title:
Signal Multiplexer for Device In-System Programming Coming Soon
SMH Technologies announces today the development of a signal multiplexer
for device in-system programming (MicroPlexer). Microplexer allows the
ISP connection coming from the programmer/tester to be switched to one
of the available output channels. In this way, a single
programmer/tester can easily handle multiple device programming, whether
on a single board or distributed across multiple boards in a panel
assembly.
MicroPlexer is designed for the typical scenario in which a multi-PCB
panel needs to be in-system programmed, saving the costs and hassles of
designing and building an in-house, ad-hoc solution.
The MicroPlexer main features are:
-
Switching of 160 signals;
-
Easy integration with all ATE systems;
-
Multiplexing through FET and Reed relay;
-
Controllable by a host PC or ATE through RS-232 or parallel control
lines;
-
Compact size.
MicroPlexer is controlled via either ASCII-based commands (through its
RS-232 channel) or via control lines. ASCII commands allow for selecting
the output channel or to disconnect all of the output channels.
MicroPlexer will be available in early Q2 2009.
