Description
Featur es
The Edge629 is a monolithic timing delay and signal fanout
solution manufactured in a high-performance bipolar process. In Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) applications, the
Edge629 buffers, distributes, and aligns timing signals
across multiple channels (typically found inside Memory
Test Systems). It is also suitable for per pin deskew in
Logic Testers.

ECL, CMOS Compatible Inputs
The Edge629 supports:
• Minimum pulse width = 330 ps with Falling
Edge Adjust disabled, 500 ps with Falling
Edge Adjust enabled
• Net usable delay span ≥ 4.0 ns
• Falling Edge Adjust ± 250 ps

Functional Block Diagram
The Edge629 solves several difficult problems associated
with aligning multiple timing signals because it can:
• delay very narrow pulses over a long
timing span
• adjust the falling edge independently from the overall
propagation delay
• maintain extreme timing accuracy for very narrow
(sub-ns) pulses
• maintain tight timing accuracy over changes in
frequency, duty cycle, and pattern.

Circuit Description
Introduction
Coarse Delay
The Edge629 is a quad channel delay element with 2
basic operating modes:
1) Fanout – 1 signal in, 4 signals out
2) Pass Through – 4 signals in, 4 signals out
Coarse propagation delay adjustment is accomplished
using a series of gate delays and multiplexers (see Figure 1). Coarse delay provides a total delay span of:
1 Coarse LSB = 90 ps
2 Coarse LSB = 180 ps
4 Coarse LSB = 360 ps
8 Coarse LSB = 720 ps
16 Coarse LSB = 1.44 ns
32 Coarse LSB = 2.88 ns
0 ns ≤ Coarse Delay Range ≤ 5.67 ns
In all modes, each channel supports 3 delay functions:
1) Coarse timing delay
2) Fine timing delay
3) Falling edge adjust
All 3 delay functions are independent of each other, and
independent for each channel.
The programming of the delay functions is done using a
16 bit register, loaded serially, which contains both a delay and an address value.
Each channel has its own unique coarse delay setting and
may be programmed independently from all other channels. The coarse delay of any channel will not affect the
fine delay of that channel, nor will it affect the overall
delay of any other channel.
The propagation delay of a rising edge and falling edge
will track each other over the entire coarse delay span.
(Adding or subtracting coarse delay does not cause pulse
width distortion.)

Circuit Description (continued)
Fine Delay
Fine Delay Select
Fine delay is accomplished using an analog delay cell and
an on-chip 6 bit DAC (see Figure 2). The fine delay range
is designed to be ~2X the coarse delay resolution.
The fine delay section may be selected or bypassed by a
multiplexer (see Figure 2). If SFD (Select Fine Delay) is
high, Fine Delay will be used. If SFD is low, Fine Delay will
be bypassed.
Fine delay provides a total delay span of:

0 ns ≤ Fine Delay Range ≤ 157.5 ps.
Note: Because the transfer function is non-linear, some
LSB steps could be as large as 5 ps.
Each channel has its own unique delay setting and may
be programmed independently from all other channels.
The fine delay of any channel will not affect the coarse
delay of that channel, nor will it affect the overall delay of
any other channel.

Falling Edge Adjustment
There is a limitation on FEA range vs. pulse width.
The falling edge of a signal may be adjusted to compensate for any system level pulse width distortion that may
occur. Falling edge adjust (FEA) is accomplished using an
analog delay cell and an on-chip 7 bit DAC (see Figure 3).
FEA may be bypassed completely by a multiplexer. Also,
FEA affects only the propagation delay of the falling edge.
It has no effect on the propagation delay of a rising edge.
Each channel has its own unique FEA setting and may be
programmed independently from all other channels. The
FEA of any channel will not affect the propagation delay of
any other channel, nor will FEA affect the propagation delay
of a rising edge.

All Channels, All Functions
With CS valid and UPDATE valid (high), CK high will make
the selected latch go transparent. The falling edge of CK
will then latch the data (see Figures 6 and 7).
Data and address information are combined in the 16 bit
word. Bits 0–6 are used for data, bits 11–15 for address.
Bits 11–14 select 1 of 16 destinations, bit 15, if high,
selects all 16 locations to be loaded simultaneously (useful for preloading all registers to a default state).

Timing Inputs
Data Interface Digital Inputs
IN/IN* and IN0/IN0* – IN3/IN3* are high speed differential inputs which require >300 mV of differential input
voltage for reliable switching.
All data digital inputs are standard, single ended ECL inputs with Vbb = –1.3V relative to VCC. However, all digital
inputs may receive input signals anywhere between VCC
and VEE. This wide input voltage compliance allows CMOS
signals to program the Edge629 without causing saturation problems.
These inputs may receive differential input signals with
amplitudes up to 3.3V. This wide range input voltage compliance allows CMOS signals to drive the Edge629 directly.
The inputs may go all the way up to VCC and still not
cause any saturation. The Edge629 will operate at full
performance under these input conditions.
Do not leave any differential inputs floating as they will be
in an indeterminate state. All unused inputs must be tied
to either a high or low level. Connecting unused timing
inputs to VCC is an acceptable method to make an input
high. However, to make an input low, it must be connected to VEE +2.0V or higher.
All digital interface inputs are "3.3V rail to rail" CMOS
compatible provided VCC = +3.3V and VEE = –2V.
CK, SDI, and UPDATE all have an internal pull-down resistor network to establish a default condition of a logical 0
when left floating. CS has a large (~50 KΩ) internal pullup resistor to VCC to establish a default condition of a
logical 1 when left floating.
For optimal performance, all data interface digital inputs
should be static when the Edge 629 is actively delaying
signals. (However, it is acceptable if CK continues to run.)
Input Mux Select
VCC
VCC
Each delay channel can select its input from one of two
sources. If Mux Select is high (SEL > SEL*), IN/IN* will
be selected for all four channels. If Mux Select is low
(SEL < SEL*), IN0/IN0* – IN3/IN3* will be selected for
each channel.

AC Characteristics (continued)
Test Conditions (unless otherwise specified): "Recommended Operating Conditions."
Note 1: Tested with an input pulse = 50 ns. This parameter is guaranteed by characterization for input pulse
widths ≥ 700 ps.
Note 2: Coarse Delay = 0, Fine Delay and Falling Edge Adjust disabled. Case Temperature = 50˚C.
Note 3: Coarse Delay is monotonic. Fine Delay is Monotonic. Since the fine delay spans close to 2 LSBs of coarse
delay, the summation of digital codes for coarse and fine delays is not monotonic. Proper binary searching
using both the coarse and fine delays is achieved first with the coarse (with SFD=1), and then with the fine
delays as separate searches.
