Overview
Experience high speed digital test capabilities at a whole new level. The Keysight
Technologies, Inc. M9195B PXIe Digital Stimulus/Response (PXI DSR) module is ideal
for IC design validation and production test environments. It goes beyond providing just
standard capabilities. The new 16-channel, single slot PXI module introduces a high
performance pattern cyclizer for powerful pattern creation including advanced timing
capabilities such as multiple drive edges per cycle. This provides flexible edge placement
and stimulus/response delays for timing margin testing or cable length compensation.
Additionally, it can support up to four independent multi-sites with an independent
sequencer for each site.
Software tools included with the M9195B allow the user to modify vector and pattern
parameters without requiring the user to recompile and download tests. An optional set
of digital development tools are also available. These software tools include a graphical
pattern editor and pattern conversion tools to speed test development by enabling test
patterns from various EDA systems to be read in, edited, and output to the M9195B.

M9195B hardware overview
Individual channel capability
Each of the 16 bidirectional channels provide programmable logic levels of –1.5 V to +6.5 V with
152 μV resolution. The per channel 4 quadrant parametric measurement unit (PPMU) enables
FVMI, FIMV, FVMV, and FIMI and FNMV modes. With the 5 PPMU current ranges between
±2 μA to ±40 mA, users can make accurate leakage measurements.
Each channel can be configured for parametric measurements, as a static digital I/O pin, or
with synchronized cyclized digital data. Digital channel direction and timing can be flexibly
controlled on a per digital vector basis. The cyclized data allows each pin to operate in RZ or
NRZ modes. In combination with the 1 ns edge placement resolution, each pin allows for an
adjustable output delay, for timing margin testing, and receive delay to compensate for cabling
propagation delays.
Multi-site capability
The PXI DSR provides a choice of a single-site configuration with 16 synchronized channels,
or a multi-site configuration with 4 sets of 4 synchronized channels. In multi-site mode, each
site has its own independent sequencer. This enables site independent clock operation for
simultaneous testing. The multi-site capability simplifies test development. Instead of forcing
the test engineer to create a single test that encompasses all for sites simultaneously, the user
only needs to focus on a single device. The single device test can be easily replicated for the
remaining test sites. In addition to the digital pins, each site has a high voltage drive channel
and an open drain control channel for relay control.
Multi-module synchronization
Up to 12 modules can be combined to build systems up to 192 channels (requires opt MMS for
each module plus the appropriate sync cable, either Y1250A or Y1251A). When modules are
combined, they operate in single-site mode and all channels are synchronized to a single test
sequencer. Typical channel-to-channel skew (including across modules) is ±300 ps. Multiple
modules are combined and programmed together into a single multi-module instrument.
Per-Pin Parametric Measurement Unit (PPMU)
The PPMU feature, available on each of the PXI DSR’s 16 channels, enables DC current and
voltage measurements. Each channel can be independently programmed to force a voltage
and measure the corresponding current, or force a current and measure the voltage. The PPMU
can make leakage current measurements at low current ranges or for measuring low input
resistance in high current ranges. In a force voltage/measure current (FVMI) mode the PPMU
can measure input bias current on a single DUT pin. For high current applications, each channel
has remote sense capability to account for the
voltage drop across the connecting cable.
Perform continuity testing of a DUT by forcing
current into the pin with other DUT pins
grounded while measuring the voltage at the
pin (FIMV). The FNMV mode (Force Nothing,
Measure Voltage) enables the PPMU to be
used as a scanning voltmeter. The PPMU
provides built-in 64 sample, 50 Hz or 60 Hz
averaging to improve measurement quality by
rejecting power line noise. All PPMU channels
share a 16-bit measurement subsystem for fast
accurate measurements.

Flexible digital pattern generation
With the included software tools, easily create, modify and reuse previously defined
patterns. Pattern timing is controlled using up to 32 waveform tables. Within the
waveform table, each of the 15 user-defined vector characters is translated into one of
the following hardware actions: Force High/Low (U/D), Force to previous state (P), Stop
Forcing (Z), Compare High/Low (H/L), Compare to Tri-state (T), Don’t Compare (X).
Each vector period has two drive edges that are used when forcing a digital state and
one receive edge used to compare digital data from the DUT. Edge placement resolution
can be set as low as 1 ns and edge placement can vary from period to period so that
oversampling is not required. The two drive edges enable the user to easily create a clock
or other RZ formats from a single vector without requiring two vectors. The flexibility
of the drive edges allow them to be changed on a per vector basis using the vector
characters or by referencing a different waveform table.
The combination of the waveform tables and edge placement resolution simplifies the
pattern programming. Variables and equations can be defined to allow the user to
simultaneously modify timing relationships and edge placement.
Once compiled, the digital patterns are stored in the PXI DSR’s on-board pattern
cache. The PXI DSR executes the patterns from the cache in order to provide high test
throughput. High-level pattern sequencing commands allow for high level macros
which can be used to define timing sets, counted and uncounted looping of pattern
blocks, conditional execution based upon matching parallel or serial patterns, or wait for
software trigger advance.
Advance timing capabilities
Change pattern values that have been downloaded to the cache without recompiling.
Pattern values can replace either parallel vectors or serial patterns. These powerful
features allow you to quickly modify patterns directly from the API. The user can create
pattern templates that are used to read or write to the DUT, then provide the vector
information directly from the API.
Variables can be modified at the API level without recompiling the test pattern. This
allows the user to control pattern timing or levels directly from the API. These advanced
capabilities useful for test applications such as a timing or voltage level shmoo.
Serial and parallel digital bus emulation
The combination of the flexible pattern timing and sequencing features, enables the PXI
DSR to emulate a wide variety of standard or custom serial/parallel protocols such as
SPI and RFFE.

Comprehensive software tool set
Keysight offers a choice of drivers and programming environments to configure and
control the PXI DSR during test development including:
–– Full featured, high-level IVI-COM, IVI-C, LabVIEW programming interfaces through
drivers
–– IEEE-1450/ STIL, OpenXML (Excel), or text file format for programmatically defining
patterns
–– The M9195B Soft Front Panel for interactive test control and debug
–– The M9192A/M9193A DSR pattern editor and data converters software enable test
patterns from various EDA systems to be read in, edited, and output to the M9195B
These test development tools can be used in powerful combinations to match the DUT’s
test flow and test requirements.
Soft Front Panel (SFP)
The SFP assists the user in the development and application of test patterns, allows
the user to change key test execution parameters, and allows the user to validate
and compensate for test fixture connectivity. During pattern development, the user
interactively loads and execute STIL, XML, or bulk data files. When loading, the tests
are checked for correct syntax and the SFP generates error messages to help debug
patterns. The SFP enables the user to the control various execution and response
logging modes. In addition to these features, the SFP uses the same IVI interface driver
calls. Each function initiated by the SFP logs an example driver call that can then be
used in a regular API environment.
IVI and LabVIEW drivers
The IVI driver set can be used to fully control all aspects of test development using the
DSR from assigning hardware pins to creating and executing waveform patterns using
the M9195B. The drivers include high level commands for:
–– Initial configuration including pin/channel names assignments, signal direction,
grouping pins/channels to make vector definition easier.
–– Setting physical layer conditions such as voltage levels, active loads
–– Defining single or multisite configurations.
–– Pattern definition and waveform timing.
–– Pattern sequencing

Standard Test Interface Language (STIL) Support
The PXI DSR takes advantage of the Standard Test Interface language (STIL) IEEE Std
1450.0 which was designed for ATE testing. The PXI DSR can be configured using STIL
commands that specify signal grouping, patterns, format, and timing information used to
apply digital test vectors to a device being tested. Using a simple text editor and using
the STIL format, attributes needed to generate digital patterns can quickly be created.
STIL tests are easy to read and understand which simplifies test development and
debug. Either the IVI API or the SFP can execute tests developed in STIL.
Bulk data import
The PXI DSR supports bulk data file import to load legacy and tool generated patterns.
Bulk data import utilizes simple text files where the first row contains signal names and
provides the option to a reference a waveform table. Each subsequent row represents
the vectors which make up the patterns. The waveform table itself can be defined using
the SFP, IVI driver, or STIL file. This provides a quick and easy way to develop production
tests using patterns developed in R&D.
07 | Keysight | M9195B PXIe Digital Stimulus/Response with PPMU: 250 MHz, 16-channel - Data Sheet
XML (.xlsx) programming interface
The XML interface allows the user to develop and debug tests in a spreadsheet form.
The STIL methodology fits well with the multiple worksheet concepts provided in modern
spreadsheet tools. Each worksheet matches a STIL function such as Signals, Waveform
Tables, and Patterns. Digital patterns are tabular in nature and therefore fit very well into
a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet provides an easy to use, flexible, and familiar interface
for novice or expert users to quickly develop digital tests. All of the standard spreadsheet
tools, such as equations, are available to help with pattern creation. This spreadsheet
interface can be used to configure and control the M9195B channels and key features
is provided as a standard development tool. Spreadsheet tests can be executed using
either the SFP or associated IVI commands.

M9192A and M9193A DSR Pattern Editor and Data Converter Software
The optional M9192A and M9193A provide a complete set of vector translation and pattern
validation software tools for the M9195B. These tools enable design and test engineers to save
time, cut costs, and dramatically decrease time to market.
M9192A DSR pattern editor software
The M9192A DSR pattern editor, based on the Solstice-TDS WaveMaker+ module from Test
Systems Strategies Inc. (TSSI), was customized to support the M9195B. The M9192A includes
a DSR STIL In-converter, a DSR STIL Tester Bridge, and M9195B error handling. M9195B STIL
files can be read using the In-converter and graphically displayed in the pattern editor. Patterns
and timing information can then be edited in a single window. This enables you to generate and
validate your own test patterns. The modified digital patterns can then be output as a STIL file
utilizing the DSR STIL tester bridge. These STIL files can be loaded directly into the M9195B Soft
Front Panel or used programmatically.
The pattern editor also speeds up test debug. M9195B error log files can be dragged-anddropped into waveform editor. This gives immediate visibility of discrepancies between the
expected and actual states of the DUT. The digital waveforms can then be edited to ensure a
passing test.
09 | Keysight | M9195B PXIe Digital Stimulus/Response with PPMU: 250 MHz, 16-channel - Data Sheet
M9193A DSR Pattern Editor with Data Converters Software
The M9193A DSR pattern editor with data converters combines the digital pattern editor with
data converters based on Solstice-TDS In-converters from TSSI. The M9193A enables the
utilization of digital pattern files from various Automatic Test Program Generators (ATPGs).
Vector files can be read using an appropriate In-converter and then edited using the pattern
editor. In the case of Verilog files, an event-based database without timing is created when the
VCE/ECVD file is read, and supplied cyclization tools add timing. Once the digital patterns are
complete, they can be utilized by the M9195B via the DSR tester bridge. The resulting digital
development environment results in fast test development using ATPGs and customized output
for the M9195B DSR.
The M9193A includes the following In-converters:
–– The WGL In-converter reads an ASCII file that’s compliant to the TSSI Waveform
Generation Language (WGL) Specification.
–– The STIL In-converter reads a text file that is STIL specification compliant (IEEE Std
1450.0-1999). This In-converter is very useful for reading files produced by many ATPGs
including Synopsys TetraMAX, Cadence Encounter, and Mentor Graphics FastScan. Note:
the M9195B PXIe DSR uses an enhanced version of STIL and is not supported with this STIL
In-converter. However, the M9195B is supported with the Keysight DSR STIL In-converter
that comes standard with the pattern editor.
–– The Verilog In-converter converts a Value Change Dump (VCD) or an Extended Value
Change Dump (EVCD) file generated by a Verilog simulator (e.g., Cadence IUS, Mentor
Questa, or Synopsys VCS).
–– The ASCII In-converter is a flexible, tabular form reader. The TSSI ASCII format is a
host-independent, human-readable representation of cyclized test patterns. This format
is designed for importing a bulk of data. The bulk data can be created from scratch or by
converting from a different pattern format as long as it conforms to the TSSI ASCII format
specification. Note: this data format is different than the bulk data format used with the
M9195B Soft Front panel.

Module calibration
Both adjustment and performance verification is required to calibrate M9195B modules. Self-maintainers can perform these
procedures by using software available from Keysight:
–– N7800A Test management environment
–– N7876A PXI digital IO calibration application
Module adjustment requires the Y1252A adjustment cable. This accessory consists of three cable assemblies necessary for voltage and
current adjustments of the M9195B. These cables are used with a high-end digital multimeter (DMM) to adjust on-board analog-digital
conversion. The N7876A is required to make adjustments using this cable.
Other instruments and hardware is required for calibration. The N7876A WebHelp file lists the equipment required for adjustment and
verification of the M9195B when using the N7800A and N7876A. For more details and access to the N7876A WebHelp file see:
