Operating states and operating positions
The product may be operated only under the operating conditions and in the positions specified by the
manufacturer, without the product's ventilation being obstructed. If the manufacturer's specifications are
not observed, this can result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury or death. Applicable local
or national safety regulations and rules for the prevention of accidents must be observed in all work
performed.
1. Unless otherwise specified, the following requirements apply to Rohde & Schwarz products:
predefined operating position is always with the housing floor facing down, IP protection 2X, use only
indoors, max. operating altitude 2000 m above sea level, max. transport altitude 4500 m above sea
level. A tolerance of ±10 % shall apply to the nominal voltage and ±5 % to the nominal frequency,
overvoltage category 2, pollution degree 2.
2. Do not place the product on surfaces, vehicles, cabinets or tables that for reasons of weight or stability
are unsuitable for this purpose. Always follow the manufacturer's installation instructions when
installing the product and fastening it to objects or structures (e.g. walls and shelves). An installation
that is not carried out as described in the product documentation could result in personal injury or
even death.
3. Do not place the product on heat-generating devices such as radiators or fan heaters. The ambient
temperature must not exceed the maximum temperature specified in the product documentation or in
the data sheet. Product overheating can cause electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury or
even death.
Electrical safety
If the information on electrical safety is not observed either at all or to the extent necessary, electric shock,
fire and/or serious personal injury or death may occur.
1. Prior to switching on the product, always ensure that the nominal voltage setting on the product
matches the nominal voltage of the mains-supply network. If a different voltage is to be set, the power
fuse of the product may have to be changed accordingly.
2. In the case of products of safety class I with movable power cord and connector, operation is
permitted only on sockets with a protective conductor contact and protective conductor.
3. Intentionally breaking the protective conductor either in the feed line or in the product itself is not
permitted. Doing so can result in the danger of an electric shock from the product. If extension cords
or connector strips are implemented, they must be checked on a regular basis to ensure that they are
safe to use.
4. If there is no power switch for disconnecting the product from the mains, or if the power switch is not
suitable for this purpose, use the plug of the connecting cable to disconnect the product from the
mains. In such cases, always ensure that the power plug is easily reachable and accessible at all
times. For example, if the power plug is the disconnecting device, the length of the connecting cable
must not exceed 3 m. Functional or electronic switches are not suitable for providing disconnection
from the AC supply network. If products without power switches are integrated into racks or systems,
the disconnecting device must be provided at the system level.
5. Never use the product if the power cable is damaged. Check the power cables on a regular basis to
ensure that they are in proper operating condition. By taking appropriate safety measures and
carefully laying the power cable, ensure that the cable cannot be damaged and that no one can be
hurt by, for example, tripping over the cable or suffering an electric shock.
Basic Safety Instructions
1171.0000.42 - 09 Page 4
6. The product may be operated only from TN/TT supply networks fuse-protected with max. 16 A (higher
fuse only after consulting with the Rohde & Schwarz group of companies).
7. Do not insert the plug into sockets that are dusty or dirty. Insert the plug firmly and all the way into the
socket provided for this purpose. Otherwise, sparks that result in fire and/or injuries may occur.
8. Do not overload any sockets, extension cords or connector strips; doing so can cause fire or electric
shocks.
9. For measurements in circuits with voltages V
rms
> 30 V, suitable measures (e.g. appropriate
measuring equipment, fuse protection, current limiting, electrical separation, insulation) should be
taken to avoid any hazards.
10. Ensure that the connections with information technology equipment, e.g. PCs or other industrial
computers, comply with the IEC 60950-1 / EN 60950-1 or IEC 61010-1 / EN 61010-1 standards that
apply in each case.
11. Unless expressly permitted, never remove the cover or any part of the housing while the product is in
operation. Doing so will expose circuits and components and can lead to injuries, fire or damage to the
product.
12. If a product is to be permanently installed, the connection between the protective conductor terminal
on site and the product's protective conductor must be made first before any other connection is
made. The product may be installed and connected only by a licensed electrician.
13. For permanently installed equipment without built-in fuses, circuit breakers or similar protective
devices, the supply circuit must be fuse-protected in such a way that anyone who has access to the
product, as well as the product itself, is adequately protected from injury or damage.
14. Use suitable overvoltage protection to ensure that no overvoltage (such as that caused by a bolt of
lightning) can reach the product. Otherwise, the person operating the product will be exposed to the
danger of an electric shock.
15. Any object that is not designed to be placed in the openings of the housing must not be used for this
purpose. Doing so can cause short circuits inside the product and/or electric shocks, fire or injuries.
16. Unless specified otherwise, products are not liquid-proof (see also section "Operating states and
operating positions", item 1). Therefore, the equipment must be protected against penetration by
liquids. If the necessary precautions are not taken, the user may suffer electric shock or the product
itself may be damaged, which can also lead to personal injury.
17. Never use the product under conditions in which condensation has formed or can form in or on the
product, e.g. if the product has been moved from a cold to a warm environment. Penetration by water
increases the risk of electric shock.
18. Prior to cleaning the product, disconnect it completely from the power supply (e.g. AC supply network
or battery). Use a soft, non-linting cloth to clean the product. Never use chemical cleaning agents such
as alcohol, acetone or diluents for cellulose lacquers.
Operation
1. Operating the products requires special training and intense concentration. Make sure that persons
who use the products are physically, mentally and emotionally fit enough to do so; otherwise, injuries
or material damage may occur. It is the responsibility of the employer/operator to select suitable
personnel for operating the products.
Basic Safety Instructions

2. Before you move or transport the product, read and observe the section titled "Transport".
3. As with all industrially manufactured goods, the use of substances that induce an allergic reaction
(allergens) such as nickel cannot be generally excluded. If you develop an allergic reaction (such as a
skin rash, frequent sneezing, red eyes or respiratory difficulties) when using a Rohde & Schwarz
product, consult a physician immediately to determine the cause and to prevent health problems or
stress.
4. Before you start processing the product mechanically and/or thermally, or before you take it apart, be
sure to read and pay special attention to the section titled "Waste disposal/Environmental protection",
item 1.
5. Depending on the function, certain products such as RF radio equipment can produce an elevated
level of electromagnetic radiation. Considering that unborn babies require increased protection,
pregnant women must be protected by appropriate measures. Persons with pacemakers may also be
exposed to risks from electromagnetic radiation. The employer/operator must evaluate workplaces
where there is a special risk of exposure to radiation and, if necessary, take measures to avert the
potential danger.
6. Should a fire occur, the product may release hazardous substances (gases, fluids, etc.) that can
cause health problems. Therefore, suitable measures must be taken, e.g. protective masks and
protective clothing must be worn.
7. Laser products are given warning labels that are standardized according to their laser class. Lasers
can cause biological harm due to the properties of their radiation and due to their extremely
concentrated electromagnetic power. If a laser product (e.g. a CD/DVD drive) is integrated into a
Rohde & Schwarz product, absolutely no other settings or functions may be used as described in the
product documentation. The objective is to prevent personal injury (e.g. due to laser beams).
8. EMC classes (in line with EN 55011/CISPR 11, and analogously with EN 55022/CISPR 22,
EN 55032/CISPR 32)

1 Usage
1.1 General
Usage
Characteristics
The ROHDE & SCHWARZ Digital Function Test Module R&S TS-PDFT is ideal for use
wherever simple or complex digital circuits are tested or programmed by static or
dynamic stimulation/recording/ communication. The deterministic simultaneous stimulation/recording of digital signals makes it possible to simulate test scenarios under
near-actual conditions. A local microprocessor ensures high computing power with
time-critical communication protocols, downloads of flash memories or analyses
directly on the module. Comprehensive trigger options with pattern comparators or the
PXI Triggerbus allow synchronization with other R&S measurement, stimulus or switching modules or PXI modules of other manufacturers.
A LabWindows IVI driver is provided on the module for the general functions. All other
hardware functions are controlled using specific extensions of the driver. As it is typical
for a LabWindows CVI driver, Function Panels and Online Help are available.
The R&S TS-PDFT module is inserted in the front of the R&S CompactTSVP chassis.
It is based on the cPCI/PXI standard.
The R&S TS-PDFT module can only be used in the R&S CompactTSVP (TSVP = Test
System Versatile Platform).
1.2 Characteristics
The Digital Function Test Module R&S TS-PDFT features the following characteristics:

R&S TS-PDFT characteristics
Self-test capability
Used in the R&S CompactTSVP
The R&S TS-PDFT module is used to test the operation of digitally mounted modules
or devices. Function tests of this type test the entire operation of a digital circuit under
conditions that are as near to reality as possible. The module does this by creating digital input patterns, measuring the output signals and comparing them with the target
values.
The following applications are available with the R&S TS-PDFT module:
●
Digital function test (Low-Speed/High-Speed)
●
Bit pattern stimulation (Low-Speed/High-Speed)
●
Bit pattern measuring (Low-Speed/High-Speed)
●
Monitoring of level state changes (pattern trigger)
●
Digital function test at component level (no node forcing, backdriving capability)
●
Protocol analysis/generation (CAN, K-Bus, RS232)
●
Downloads, e.g. for flash components, serial and parallel
A typical function test will comprise the following tasks:
●
Adapting the pin electronics to the environment of the unit under test (logic level
and logic family)
●
Defining the sensor strobe
●
Defining the stimulus and measuring response of the module pins (PDFT)
●
Evaluating the test results
Should the application require additional digital channels, this can be achieved by cascading further R&S TS-PDFT modules and synchronizing them with the PXI Triggerbus. The ability to program the modes, output levels and input threshold values in
groups makes for an optimum adaption to the requirements of the application. Power
relays and pulse-width modulable power outputs further complement the functionality.
Serial communications interfaces such as CAN High/Low-Speed, K-Bus and RS232
are controlled by a powerful local microprocessor.
The extremely compact design with I/O suppressor circuitry and signal conditioning
occupies just a single Compact PCI/PXI slot width, making it possible to create spacesaving yet very powerful measurement and stimulus systems.
The hysteresis of the input channels can be programmed to minimize electrical transients. The lower and upper threshold voltages can be set separately in groups. The
robustness of the R&S TS-PDFT module is further enhanced by suppressor circuits
that prevent shorts, backe. m.f. and overvoltage.

Usage
Characteristics
The R&S TS-PDFT module can perform a full self-test without any additional measurement effort. Diagnostic LEDs in the front panel indicate the module's status.
The digital function test (Low-Speed) tests functionalities where the emphasis is more
on the correct interplay of logic chips and less on proving time-critical limits. The application lays down the patterns that must be stimulated and the expected responses. A
comparison of the two targets produces a PASS/FAIL outcome. Other applications
include the testing / stimulating of digital interfaces and downloading data into a programmable chip within the circuit.
The real-time test tests the complete function of the digital part of a UUT under operating conditions that are as near to reality as possible. This is done by applying digital
patterns (vectors) with a high clockpulse rate and accurate time response to the UUT's
connections and recording its reactions. For exact and predictable timing it is essential
that the patterns are stored in pin memories behind the driver sensors and are processed at high speed (dynamic channels). The same is true for recording the test
results and errors for subsequent evaluation and analysis.

Function Description
General

Figure 5-1: Block diagram of the R&S TS-PDFT module
5.1 General
The R&S TS-PDFT digital function test module provides several groups of digital input
and output pins. For this purpose, the module has unmultiplexed digital pins, i.e.
behind each pin is a separate digital channel. The module also provides variable levels
for sensor and driver reference. As a result it is possible to generate suitable logic levels for virtually every application. All settings are made and the clock-pulse is generated on the module itself, so no further stimulus modules are needed.
The usable level range depends on the configuration of the driver references. The
driver levels are generated from the CPCI supply (+5 V, +12 V).
If necessary, all driver pins can be connected to the sensor pins and so stimulate and
measure and monitor signal driving. All driver channels can be put into the high-resistance state (TRI-STATE).
The test is time controlled and evaluated locally with a processor. In the event of a
fault, the faulty pins can be identified and reported to the control processor.
The output drivers and input comparators can be set up in 8-bit groups.

5.2 Hardware Description
5.2.1 General
Function Description
Hardware Description
cPCI Interface
A Compact PCI bus (cPCI) interface chip serves as an interface between the PCI bus
and the FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).
Boot Logic
The boot logic transfers the firmware design of the FPGA from the EEPROM to the
FPGA when the module is powered on. This transfer can also be initiated with the software during ongoing operation, thereby making it possible to dynamically adapt the
FPGA for future expansions.
FPGA
The FPGA provides the control functions needed to program the analog hardware, digital interfaces and the switching functions.
EEPROM
The EEPROM is used to store the configuration, the correction and the boot data of the
FPGA. Access is achieved with the cPCI chip.
Geographical Address Identification
The physical slot number (the GA code of the cPCI chip) is read by the local parallel
bus.
5.2.2 Serial Ports
The microprocessor provides serial ports RS232 / K-Bus / SER_xxTTL and CAN.
5.2.2.1 RS232 / K-Bus
The asynchronous serial port of the microprocessor is used to create an RS232 and KBus port and is multiplexed on the RS232 or K-Bus transceiver. The microprocessor's
RX/TX channels are routed in parallel to the FPGA. A multiplexer in the FPGA can be
used to output these signals as TTL signals (low active) on the X10 signals XTO/XTI.
The RS232 port is selected as default.

Hardware Description
When connecting the R&S TS-PDFT to the K-Bus, the following additional external elements are required:
Figure 5-2: Switching for K-Bus, R&S TS-PDFT as Master Node
Figure 5-3: Switching for K-Bus, R&S TS-PDFT as slave node
The R&S TS-PDFT module returns an output voltage of 5 V to the VBAT X10 signal. A
voltage of up to 20 V can be applied to the VBAT by means of a diode (as protection
against reverse-polarity).
A 1 kΩ pullup resistor with an additional diode is required between VBAT and KBUS.
Normally the resistor is connected to the master node.
5.2.2.2 CAN-Bus
The microprocessor provides two CAN ports which are directly connected to the CAN
transceivers. The first CAN port (CAN1) has a high-speed transceiver, while the second part (CAN2) is equipped with a low-speed, fault-tolerant transceiver. Both ports are
routed out on the same CAN bus. The bus can be terminated at one or both ends

OPs, is made available at the X10 as VCAN_H and VCAN_L.
Figure 5-4: CAN-Bus
The AUX channels are connected with 2-pole changeover switches. Each of the signals AUX1..AUX4 is taken from the rear connector X20 (RearIO) to the front connector
X10 (3A track each) both directly and via the first relay pole (AUXxA). The pins of the
changeover contacts of the second relay poles (AUXxB) are taken out to the X20 and
X50 (3A track each).
5.2.4 Synchronizing
Triggers can be both received and generated to allow synchronizing with other devices,
especially with analyzer modules or digital measuring modules. The trigger signals of
the PXI trigger bus, the external triggers XTO/XTI on the X10 and two FPGA-internal
signals (DINTRIGx) that are derived from two 16-bit pattern comparators of the digital
input channels, are available for this purpose.
5.2.5 Relay Control
The configuration relays / analog switches are driven by the local SPI interface and the
associated shift registers via the microprocessor bus and registers / latches.
5.2.5.1 GND Relay
A switchable GND connection (GND_NO) is needed to be able to run an in-circuit test.
This connection is provided by a 2-poles relay.
This connection is open by default.

The microprocessor can read the status of the input channels with FPGA registers.
The mode and the hysteresis of the window comparators can be set for each pin
group. If necessary, measurements can be recorded into the Response RAM (FIFO),
controlled by the trigger block. The Response RAM is read over the microprocessor
bus.
Voltage Levels
The voltage level range without the suppressor circuit responding is -5 V / +12 V.
Higher input levels generate higher input currents. An individual threshold of 0 ... +9.5
can be set by DAC for each pin group (8 bits).

Function Description
Hardware Description
In the default condition, the threshold is programmed to the TTL level HIGH = 2.0 V.
Suppressor Circuit
Without signal conditioning, the inputs are protected up to ±42 V by a rapid suppressor
circuit. The input impedance is reduced from 1 MΩ to 10 kΩ if the circuit becomes
active.
Bidirectional Pins
All input channels can be connected in groups of 8 to their corresponding output channels by analog switches.

Commissioning
Installing the R&S TS-PDFT Module
To install the plug-in module, proceed as follows:
●
Run down and power off the TSVP
●
Remove the front panel from the rear side of the TSVP chassis by slackening off
the screws
Damaged backplane due to bent pins
Bent pins may result in permanent damage to the backplane.
Check the backplane connector for bent pins!
Any pins that are bent must be straightened!
When module is connected, it must be guided with both hands and carefully pressed
into the backplane connector.
●
Apply moderate pressure to insert the plug-in module (use locating pin to attach)
●
The plug-in module is correctly located when a distinct 'stop' can be felt
●
Tighten the top and bottom screws on the front panel of the plug-in module
The R&S TS-PDFT module is automatically detected by the R&S CompactTSVP.
