TMU Front End Module (TMUFE)
The TMU Front End Module eliminates the need to build and program switching
networks that connect multiple DUT outputs to the Time Measurement Unit.
The TMU Front End module provides programmable, buffered connections between
the DUT and the TMU A / TMU B input lines on the PTH Motherboard (which are
sent back to the Tester Mainframe TMU on 50 ohm cables).
The TMU Front End module also provides programmable attenuation suitable for
input signals up to ±200 V.
The TMU Front End has two 8:1 multiplexers. One for connecting 1 of 8 DUT pins
to TMU A; the other for connecting 1 of 8 DUT pins to TMU B. The TMU Front
End inputs are referenced as TMUFEInput1–16, where 1–8 are understood to apply
only to TMU A, while 9–16 apply only to TMU B.
