The SN74LVT18504 scan test device with 20-bit universal bus transceivers is a member of the Texas Instruments SCOPETM testability integrated circuit family. This family of devices supports IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990 boundary scan to facilitate testing of complex circuit-board assemblies. Scan access to the test circuitry is accomplished via the 4-wire test access port (TAP) interface.
Additionally, this device is designed specifically for low-voltage (3.3-V) VCC operation, but with the capability to provide a TTL interface to a 5-V system environment.
In the normal mode, this device is a 20-bit universal bus transceiver that combines D-type latches and D-type flip-flops to allow data flow in transparent, latched, or clocked modes. The test circuitry can be activated by the TAP to take snapshot samples of the data appearing at the device pins or to perform a self test on the boundary-test cells. Activating the TAP in the normal mode does not affect the functional operation of the SCOPETM universal bus transceivers.
Data flow in each direction is controlled by output-enable (
and
), latch-enable (LEAB and LEBA),
clock-enable (
and
), and clock (CLKAB and CLKBA)
inputs. For A-to-B data flow, the device operates in the transparent
mode when LEAB is high. When LEAB is low, the A-bus data is latched
while
is high and/or
CLKAB is held at a static low or high logic level. Otherwise, if LEAB
is low and
is low, A-bus
data is stored on a low-to-high transition of CLKAB. When
is low, the B outputs are active.
When
is high, the B
outputs are in the high-impedance state. B-to-A data flow is similar
to A-to-B data flow but uses the
, LEBA,
, and
CLKBA inputs.
In the test mode, the normal operation of the SCOPETM universal bus transceivers is inhibited and the test circuitry is enabled to observe and control the I/O boundary of the device. When enabled, the test circuitry performs boundary-scan test operations according to the protocol described in IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990.
Four dedicated test pins are used to observe and control the operation of the test circuitry: test data input (TDI), test data output (TDO), test mode select (TMS), and test clock (TCK). Additionally, the test circuitry performs other testing functions such as parallel-signature analysis (PSA) on data inputs and pseudo-random pattern generation (PRPG) from data outputs. All testing and scan operations are synchronized to the TAP interface.
Active bus-hold circuitry is provided to hold unused or floating data inputs at a valid logic level.
The SN74LVT18504 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
