The Edge142 is a 4 X 2 cross point switch with output
edge deskew capability. Manufactured in a high
performance bipolar process, it is designed primarily for
channel deskew applications in VLSI and Mixed-Signal
test equipment.
Any of the four input signals may be selected as the

multiplexing, adjacent channel multiplexing, and signal
buffering for both the drive and receive signals, in addition
to timing deskew.
The delay value (and resolution) is controlled via an
external voltage DAC. The delay element is designed
specifically to be monotonic and very stable while
delaying a very narrow pulse over a limited delay range.
Applications
The part offers separate delays for rising vs. falling edges.
The rising edge delay range is 1.5 ns and the falling
edge adjustment range is 300 ps.
• Automatic Test Equipment
– Per pin deskew in VLSI, Mixed-Signal, and Memory
Testers
– Clock Distribution with timing adjustment
The Edge142 is also well suited for 1:2 or 1:4 signal
fanout applications that require:
- multiple signal sources
- output enable / disable
- timing deskew on the output
signals.

Circuit Description
Chip Overview
The Edge142 is a 4 X 2 cross point switch and deskew
element, offering an 1.5 ns delay (Tspan), where the
VDELAY inputs adjust the overall propagation delay of
the part. In addition, the part supports a separate falling
edge delay of 300 ps (Tfall), where the VFALL inputs
control the falling edge delay.
Two additional outputs, which are selectable from either
OUT0 or OUT1, are provided. These outputs are useful
when attempting to fanout a selected input to multiple
destination without using and external buffer. All output
signals may be enabled or disabled.
The Edge142 is designed to be monotonic and very
stable. Figure 1 shows a simplified block diagram.

The Edge142 provides MUX OUT0 / MUX OUT0* and

in the table below.

The MUX OUT signals allow either of the delayed outputs
to be sent to an alternative destination without having
to daisy chain the outputs to multiple destinations. This
feature permits point to point routing of all critical timing
signals in an effort to maintain the cleanest transmission
lines for these signals.
VDELAY controls the propagation delay of both the rising
and falling edge (see Figure 2). An input signal is
selected and then delayed by some programmable
amount (Tspan) determined by the analog input VDELAY.
The rising and falling edges are delayed equally. The
propagation delay for a rising and a falling edge is defined
as
Tpd+, Tpd- = Tpd(nom) + Tspan
where Tpd(nom) is the propagation delay of the part
with zero programmed delay, and Tspan is the additional
delay programmed via the VDELAY input. Notice that
Tspan can be either positive or negative, depending on
the nominal biasing of VDELAY, thus allowing bidirectional
propagation delay adjustment. The transfer function
for Tspan vs. VDELAY is shown in Figure 4.
TPD min
The MUX OUT signals also provide a method for sending
one common selected input signal to two independent
destinations. This feature is useful when fanning out
driver data and driver enable signals to multiple test
heads.

Circuit Description (continued)
Falling Edge Adjust
Default Conditions
VFALL allows independent adjustment of the falling edge
(see Figure 3). The propagation delay for a falling edge
is defined as
All digital inputs have either an internal pull up (to ground)
or pull down (to VEE) resistor (~50 KΩ) to protect against
floating inputs migrating to an indeterminant state. All
differential timing inputs are pulled to a logical zero state.
All operating mode control inputs are pulled down to a
logical zero. The mux select and mux enable inputs
have pull down resistors to VEE. And the output enable
is pulled up to ground.
Tpd- = Tpd(nom) + Tspan + Tfall
where Tfall is defined as the additional delay incurred by
adjusting the VFALL input. Notice that Tfall can be either
positive or negative over a ± 150 ps range, depending
on where VMID is set. This flexibility allows the part to
either expand or contract an input signal .
The following chart summarizes the internal state of the
digital inputs.
Notice also that Tpd+ is a function of VDELAY only, while
Tpd- is a function of VDELAY and VFALL. The transfer
function for Tspan vs. VDELAY is shown in Figure 4. The
transfer function for Tfall vs. VFALL is shown in Figure 5.
Input
VMID
VMID is used in conjuction with VFALL to remove any
systematic pulse width expansion or contraction. VMID
and VFALL are differential analog voltage inputs which
affect the falling edge delay.
When VFALL equals VMID, there will be no programmed
pulse width variation between the input and the output
signal. It is the difference between VMID and VFALL
that expands or contracts a pulse.

However, despite the internal resistors providing a known

VMID should be statically established at the midpoint of
the voltage swing of VFALL.
INPUT
VFALL = –1.3V
VFALL = +0.1V
Programming Sequence
VDELAY, in addition to affecting the placement of the
rising edge, also affects the falling edge. Therefore, when
calibrating a system, VDELAY should be adjusted first.
As VFALL affects only the falling edge, it should be
adjusted after VDELAY is established.

Circuit Description (continued)
Analog Delay Inputs
Compensation Pins
VDELAY, VFALL, and VMID are analog voltage inputs which
control the delay of the rising and falling edge. All three
inputs may vary from +0.1V (minimum delay) to -1.3V
(maximum delay).
COMP1 and COMP2 are Op Amp compensation pins.
For proper Edge142 functionality, these pins require a
.1 µF capacitor to ground.
VMID should be permanently set to the middle of the
overall voltage range spanned by VFALL (~ -0.6V). A
fixed resistor to ground will usually suffice. The exact
setting of VFALL will vary depending on the required delay
range of the falling edge.
Thermal Monitor
These inputs are designed to sink a constant input
current, typically 1.0 mA (with REXT1 = 2.94 KΩ), over
their operating range from +0.1V to -1.3V. Any voltage
DAC used to drive these inputs directly needs to source
at least 1.0 mA. Any current DAC used needs to factor
in the constant 1.0 mA input current.
The Edge142 includes an on-chip thermal monitor
accessible through the pins TDP and TDN. These nodes
connect to five diodes in series (see Figure 6) and may
be used to accurately measure the junction temperature
at any time.
TDP
Bias Current
The equation used to establish the VDELAY, VMID, and
VFALL input currents is:
I (VFALL, VDELAY, VMID) = 3.0V / REXT1.
Temperature coefficient = –10 mV/ C
˚
The fact that the VDELAY, VFALL, and VMID inputs have
internal current sources allows a voltage DAC capable
of generating only positive voltages and an external
resistor network to be pulled down to the Edge142's
negative input voltage compliance. These current
sources are designed to be constant over temperature,
so changes in system temperature will not translate into
a delay voltage shift.
Using a different REXT1 will program a different input
current. However, the value of this current does not
affect deskew range or performance. The ability to vary
this current allows a more flexible interface to a variety
of DAC programming techniques.
TDN
Figure 6. Thermal Diode String
An external bias current of 100 µA is injected through
the string, and the measured voltage corresponds to a
specific junction temperature with the following equation:
TJ(˚C) = {(V(TDP) – V(TDN)) / 5 – .7} / (-.00208).
VDELAY, VFALL, and VMID all require current flow. Do
NOT leave any of these input pins floating. If an
application does not require any falling edge delay,
connect all VDELAY and VMID pins to ground.

Comparator Return Path
The Edge142 is designed specifically to buffer, multiplex,
and deskew multiple comparator paths from multiple test
heads to the timing generators located back in the tester
mainframe. The Edge142 provides a one IC solution
between the pin electronics and the error strobing
circuitry. Most importantly, the Edge142 performs all of
the timing deskew functions, thus removing the burden
of timing compensation from the error section. By
performing the calibration with the Edge142, there may
be some improvement in the edge to edge retrigger time
inside the timing generator.

the multiplexer and output enable signals, the signals
may be routed to either test head.
By using the Edge142 for timing calibration, the timing
generator can generate “pure” timing signals, regardless
of the timing errors associated with driving one test head
vs. another. Removing the need for the timing generator
to perform the deskew function, the restriction on
consecutive edges may be improved.

Temperature Coefficient
The propagation delay temperature coefficient is shown
in the above two charts. The same information is
displayed on two different scales to enhance readability.
The 142 functions over the entire VDELAY voltage range,
but the timing error due to changes in the ambient
temperature becomes large for VDELAY < -1.1V. If
extreme accuracy is required, the recommended voltage
range is: +0.1V >= VDELAY >= -1.1V. If greater range is
needed and thermal drift can be tolerated, or the ambient
temperature is very tightly controlled, the entire voltage
range may be used.
