The E7804 is a quad channel, monolithic ATE pin
electronics solution manufactured in a high-performance
BiCMOS process.
The E7804 operates up to ꢀ33 MHz with up to 3V signals,
and ꢀ00 MHz with 5V signals.
Each channel has a three-statable driver capable of
generating 5.4V swings over a –0.2V, +5.2V range. Drivers
have independent high and low input levels that are
buffered internally. Drivers feature a self-calibrating source
impedance, programmable in the range 48Ω to 110Ω. The
source impedance of all drivers matches R /ꢀ00, where
EREF

is the external reference resistor. Each channel’s
dual comparator has a range of –2.0V to +5.5V.
Applications
A channel’s driver and comparators are connected
internally via high voltage switches to the VIO pin. These
switches provide a means to disconnect the driver and
comparator from the VIO pin.

The E7804 contains an independent network of high
voltage switches intended to connect an external
Parametric Measurement Unit (EPMU) to any channel (or
channels) output on the channel’s POUT pin. The EPMU
can have a range of –4.75V to +9.75V, up to ±40 mA.
Typically, a channel’s VIO and POUT pins are connected
together externally.

Each channel contains a continuity test circuit (CTC) with a
switch to connect it to the channel’s POUT pin. This circuit
forces a current up to –250 µA, and tests the resulting
voltage with a 0 to –2V programmable limit. The result is
tested by the channel’s comparator.

The channel’s function and connections are programmed
using a serial interface. An individual channel’s function
can be programmed, or a function of any set of channels
(of multiple E7804s) can be programmed in parallel where
each channel can belong to none, one, or more (up to 8)
sets.
