MPQ Manufacturing Programmer User's Guide
4.1.2 ATE Pass/Fail Status
At the completion of programming, pass/fail status is available on pins PF1 .. PF4 of the Control connec-
tor. The pins will be drive high (~3.3V) by the MPQ to indicate a PASS condition, or low to indicate a FAIL
condition. PF1..PF4 are valid on the rising edge of Active#.
The PF1..PF4 signals have an output resistance of approximately 100 ohms. Excessive loading on these
pins should be avoided, and they should not be driven by the ATE.
4.1.3 ATE OptionSelection
When programming is initiated using only Active#, the image and port selections are limited to the Default
selections that were made using MP Manager. However, it is possible for the ATE to control image and port-
enable selection more directly by using the ATE_Op_En# signal.If the ATE_Op_En# signal on the Control
connector is asserted (low) when Active# is asserted by the ATE, the MPQ will use the information provided
on the ATE_OptionSel 1..0 pins of the control connector to select the programming options. This allows four
additonal option settings, in addition to the Default setting.
ATE_Opt_En# and ATE_OptionSel 1..0 are pulled up with 4.75K-ohm resistors to 3.5V internal to
MPQ, so if they are not driven by the ATE, the default image will be used.

4.1.4 ATE Option Setup
The four ATE option settings are programmed from MPManager in the same way that the Default setting
is programmed. In the Program Manager, select the desired image and port enables, then select Configure/Set
ATE Options from the MPManager menu bar. You will be given the choice of one of the four ATE Options to
be used for the setting. The existing ATE Option settings can also be viewed by selecting Configure/ViewATE
Options from the MPManager menu bar.
