DG605 Interface Technology Digital Word Generator Expansion Module

The Interaface Technology DG600 is a message-based digital pattern generator implemented within a single slot, C-size module. It is capable of generating complex patterns at speeds up to 50 MHz while taking advantage of memory saving features such as three level looping and data tabling. There are 32 data channels available at speeds up to 25 MHz, and 16 of those channels will operate at speeds up to 50 MHz.

Up to three DG605 expansion modules can be used with the DG600. Depending on the number of DG605 units installed, the number of channels available in the 50 MHz operating mode is 16 to 112, in 32 channel increments. In the 25 MHz operating mode, 32 to 224 channels are available in 64 channel increments.

The DG600 and the DG605 provide tri-state control for individual channels on a clock-by-clock basis, a feature essential for testing bidirectional busses often found in memory devices and microprocessor applications.

The DG600 implements the IEEE 488.2 common commands as a subset of a comprehensive, dedicated digital word generator command language. Sophisticated commands like "increment memory fills" allow quick set up of test conditions and data vectors. This saves time and cost by simplifying VXI software programming.
