Configuring Output Pin Characteristics
The drive strength and slew rate of any pin being used as an output from the XJLink2-CFM can be
configured to maintain high speed, high quality signals.
Slew rate
– each output pin can be given one of three slew rates to control the signal’s rise and fall
times. The value can be set to fast, medium, or slow on a pin-by-pin basis.
Drive strength
– a drive strength can be set independently for each output pin. It is defined in
terms of the series termination impedance of the net being driven.
7. Cable Restraints
The XJLink2-CFM and extender boards have holes for cable restraints as shown in Figure 5. These allow a
cable-tie to secure the USB cable, and the supplied clamp to hold the ribbon cable in place.
Suitable replacement ribbon cable clamp: Richco snap-in nylon flat cable clamp, FCCS-2.
In addition, each board provides an electrically isolated connector (J11) that can be used as an anchor
point for a Teradyne system ribbon cable.
