FlashRunner Quattro User's Manual
3 Connectors
3.1 Overview
FlashRunner Quattro connects to your programming/testing system through
three connectors: two connectors (“ISP GROUP A” and “ISP GROUP B”)
group the outputs from FlashRunner; the other connector (“CONTROL”)
groups control signals.
Additionally, an RS-232 and Ethernet connector are provided for full
interfacing with the ATE system.
3.2 ISP Connectors
The “ISP GROUP A” and “ISP GROUP B” connectors group the signals
needed to program up to 16 target devices (depending on the FlashRunner
Quattro model). These connectors have several input/output lines,
both digital and analog, that are automatically configured by FlashRunner
depending on the specific target device to be programmed (see the
FlashRunner Programmer’s Manual to learn how to connect these lines to
your specific target device).
!
Note:
ISP and I/O signals are not optoisolated and are
referenced to GND (the power supply ground).
Additionally, in order to avoid undesired current loops
between the FlashRunner power supply and the target
board, a power supply with a floating output (ground not
referenced to the earth potential) should be used.
