Manual Conventions
This manual uses certain conventions that you should become familiar with.
Some sections of the manual contain procedures for you to perform. To keep
those instructions clear and consistent, this manual uses the following
conventions:
H Names of front panel controls and menus appear in the same case (initial
capitals, all uppercase, etc.) in t he manual as is used on the DG2020A front
panel and menus. Front panel names are all upper-case letters; for example,
SETUP MENU, HARDCOPY,etc.
H Instruction steps are numbered unless there is only one step.
Modules
Safety
Throughout this manual, any replaceable component, assembly, or part of the
DG2020A is referred to generically as a module. In general, a module is an
assembly (like a circuit board), rather than a component (like a resistor or an
integrated circuit). Sometimes a single component is a module; for example, the
chassis of the DG2020A is a module.
Symbols and terms related to safety appear in the Safety Summary near the
beginning of this manual.
Finding Other Information
Other documentation for the DG2020A Data Generator includes:
H The DG2020A User Manual contains a tutorial to quickly describe how to

Performance Check Interval
Generally, the performance check described in section 4, Performance Verification, should be done every 12 m onths. In addition, performance check is
recommended after module replacement.
Strategy for Servicing
If the DG2020A does not meet performance criteria, repair is necessary.
Throughout this manual, the term, module, refers to any field-replaceable
component, assembly, or part of the DG2020A.
This manual contains all the information needed for periodic maintenance of the
DG2020A. (Examples of such information are procedures for checking performance.)
Further, it contains all information for corrective maintenance down to the
module level. To isolate a failure to a module, use t he fault isolation procedures
found in Troubleshooting, part of section 6, Maintenance. To remove and replace
any failed module, follow the instructions in Removal and Installation Proce-
dures, also part of section 6. After isolating a faulty module, replace it with a
fully-tested module obtained from the factory. Section 10, Mechanical Parts
List, contains part number and ordering information for all replaceable modules.

DG2020A Service Manual
Product Description
The DG2020A is a digital data generator designed for high performance and ease
of use. The DG2020A is easy to use for testing and evaluating semiconductors
and logic circuits, which are continually becoming faster and more complex.
The DG2020A provides, in a compact package, high performance and a wide
range of functions. Features include a maximum data rate of 200 MHz, a 64K
word pattern memory, 12 channels (with support for up to 36 channels by adding
optional modules), a 100 ps timing skew adjustment function, and variable
output levels (from --3 to +7V).
Any memory size from 64 words to 64K words can be used easily, with no
restrictions within that range. TTL output level and variable output level pods
can be selected as the data output pods. Both pod types support setting of their
output stages to a high-impedance state. Each module supports delays in 4 of its
12 channels with a 100-ps-resolution variable delay time.
The DG2020A provides flexible data editing functions, including word and line
unit input and extended data creation functions. Furthermore, the DG2020A
provides a rich set of functions required for system construction, such as a
sequencing function, a jump function using external input, and an inhibit
function.
Features
H The DG2020A supports smooth and rapid product development by
simulating the digital signals from incomplete sections of a product.
H Logic function test systems can be constructed by combining this instrument
with a logic analyzer.
H Margin tests can be easily performed by using this instrument to generate
patterns that have a low probability of occurrence or are difficult to generate.
This can increase end-product reliability.
H Interactive digital simulation systems can be constructed using the sequence
output, external jump, and tristate control functions.
H Flexible data output functions make the DG2020A an ideal data generator
for simulation of LCD display units, CCD line and area sensors, and all
types of digital circuits.

Performance Characteristics
The performance characteristics on the DG2020A can be divided into three
categories:
H Nominal Traits. General characteristics are described not by equipment
performance and limits but by such things as memory capacity.
H Warranted Characteristics. Warranted characteristics are described in terms of
quantifiable performance limits which are guaranteed.
H Typical Characteristics. Typical characteristics are described in terms of
typical or average performance for the DG2020A. The characteristics
described herein are not absolutely guaranteed.
Items marked with * are tested in the Performance Verification (Section 4).
The certification and compliances for the DG2020A are also found at the end of

can be divided into two main categories: electrical characteristics and environmental characteristics.
Performance Conditions
The electrical characteristics are valid under the following conditions:
1. The instrument must be in an environment whose limits are described in
Environmental Characteristics.
2. All tolerance limits apply after a 20 minute warm up.
3. The instrument is operating at an ambient temperature between +10 _Cto
+40 _C, unless otherwise noted.
