The 'ABTH18652A and 'ABTH182652A scan test devices with 18-bit bustransceivers and registers are members of the Texas InstrumentsSCOPETM testability integrated-circuit family. This familyof devices supports IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990 boundary scan tofacilitate testing of complex circuit-board assemblies. Scan accessto the test circuitry is accomplished via the 4-wire test access port(TAP) interface.
In the normal mode, these devices are 18-bit bus transceivers andregisters that allow for multiplexed transmission of data directlyfrom the input bus or from the internal registers. They can be usedeither as two 9-bit transceivers or one 18-bit transceiver. The testcircuitry can be activated by the TAP to take snapshot samples of thedata appearing at the device pins or to perform a self test on theboundary-test cells. Activating the TAP in the normal mode does notaffect the functional operation of the SCOPETM bustransceivers and registers.
Data flow in each direction is controlled by clock (CLKAB andCLKBA), select (SAB and SBA), and output-enable (OEAB and
inputs. Since the
input isactive-low, the A outputs are active when
ishigh. Figure 1 illustrates the four fundamental bus-managementfunctions that are performed with the 'ABTH18652A and 'ABTH182652A.
In the test mode, the normal operation of the SCOPETMbus transceivers and registers is inhibited, and the test circuitryis enabled to observe and control the I/O boundary of the device.When enabled, the test circuitry performs boundary-scan testoperations according to the protocol described in IEEE Standard1149.1-1990.
Four dedicated test pins observe and control the operation of thetest circuitry: test data input (TDI), test data output (TDO), testmode select (TMS), and test clock (TCK). Additionally, the testcircuitry performs other testing functions such as parallel-signatureanalysis (PSA) on data inputs and pseudo-random pattern generation(PRPG) from data outputs. All testing and scan operations aresynchronized to the TAP interface.
Improved scan efficiency is accomplished through the adoption of aone boundary-scan cell (BSC) per I/O pin architecture. Thisarchitecture is implemented in such a way as to capture the mostpertinent test data. A PSA/COUNT instruction is also included to easethe testing of memories and other circuits where a binary countaddressing scheme is useful.
Active bus-hold circuitry holds unused or floating data inputs ata valid logic level.
The B-port outputs of 'ABTH182652A, which are designed to sourceor sink up to 12 mA, include 25-
series resistors to reduce overshoot and undershoot.
The SN54ABTH18652A and SN54ABTH182652A are characterized foroperation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to125°C. The SN74ABTH18652A and SN74ABTH182652A are characterizedfor operation from -40°C to 85°C.
