Vesuvius DATASHEET
Vesuvius
Vesuvius is a highly integrated System-on-a-Chip (SOC) Device Under Test (DUT) power supply solution incorporating 8 independent DUT Power Supply (DPS) units.
The interface, the control, and the I/O are digital; all analog circuitry is inside the chip. For most tester applications, no additional analog hardware needs to be developed or used on a per channel basis.
All configuration setup and the writing to and reading back of the internal registers are controlled through the 3-bit serial data CPU port. The CPU port is typically used to setup the operating conditions of each channel prior to executing a test, or to change modes during a test.
An internal register chart (Memory Map), listed later in the data sheet, lists all programmable control signals and their addresses. Real time control is accomplished via the central EN and DATA_# pins. Real time observation is accomplished via the central monitor.
