INTRODUCTION

This is the user manual for the AT93000 Diagnostic Kit. The diagnostic kit is used to debug failing channels on MultiLane AT93000 ATE instruments. It can be used with the AT93000 Diagnostic GUI which also has its own user manual available for each instrument

Diagnostic Kit Pieces

The diagnostic kit is made up of the following pieces:

• Stiffener bracket
  • The bracket is laid over the instrument cage and then it is hard docked in a similar fashion to hard docking a DUT loadboard
• POGO blindmate connectors with cable strain reliefs
  • For maximum flexibility, the POGO connectors can be attached to be located over any cassette. They can also be rotated 180 degrees
  • Cable strain reliefs help secure the Male and Female coax cables
• Cables with Male and Female 1.85mm mating connectors
  • These connectors insert into the POGO connectors and can be hand tightened. This way, the cables can be moved around to different POGO connector locations, if necessary

Tools Required

• M4 socket head screwdriver
  • Standard metric catalog item
  • Used to attach POGO blindmate connectors to stiffener
• AT93000-SMPM-TOOL:
  • Multilane custom tool. Order through Multilane
  • Used to attach SMPM cables to POGO blindmate connectors
  • SMPM nuts can be finger tightened; however, this tool makes the job quicker

Stiffener Bracket

Stiffener Bracket Hole Locations

While the loadboard stiffener was designed for diagnostics, it can also be used to anchor evaluation boards and other objects that you might want to blindmate-connect over to the MultiLane instruments. The hole locations can also be found in this DXF file HERE.

POGO blindmate connectors **

**

The POGO blindmate connectors are connected to the diagnostic stiffener using two socket head M4 x 6 mm screws. This allows you to easily move the POGO to a different cassette location to diagnose another M4 x 6 mm screws instrument. Figure 6 shows a POGO attached. You can see the two M4 x 6 mm screws connecting each POGO to the stiffener.

Connecting cables to the POGO blindmate connectors

The cables have SMPM connections that are inserted into the POGO holes. The cables have nuts that are attached on the opposite side of the POGO and are hand tightened. Don’t over tighten the nuts

(Optional) Cable Strain Relief

An optional cable strain relief is screwed into the stiffener using hex head M4 x 16 bolts.

Choosing the correct cassette locations

• Run the diag GUI and browse the concerned model file depending on the particular application. It will tell you which instruments are being used by the device test program.

• Knowledge of which instruments can transmit (TX) and which instruments can receive (RX) is required. You will connect transmit channels to receive channels to test the instruments in a loopback configuration. For example, a BERT has TX and RX channels. So, you can connect BERT ch1-4 TX channels to BERT ch1-4 RX channels and then run the diagnostic GUI on these
  input/output channels

• Because the POGOs can be moved to different cassette locations and because the POGOs can be rotated 180 before being attached to a cassette location, a clever plan will minimize how many times the cables need to be inserted into different locations. For example, if 2 DSO’s are installed and they are in cassette locations such that DSO #1 is rotated 180 degrees with respect to DSO

  2, then the POGO can be unscrewed and rotated to accommodate the 2nd DSO

  without having to rewire the coax wires.
