The GX5292e is a high performance, cost-effective 3U PXI
Express dynamic digital I/O boards offering 32 TTL or LVDS
input or output channels with dynamic direction control. The
GX5292e also supports deep pattern memory by offering 256
MB of on-board vector memory with dynamic per pin direction
control and with test rates up to 100 MHz. The single board
design supports both master and slave functionality without the
use of add-on modules.

FEATURES
The GX5292e supports selectable I/O levels of 1.5 V, 1.8 V,
2.5 V, or 3.3 V (TTL, LVTTL, CMOS, LVCMOS). In addition, the
GX5292e supports 32 differential channels for LVDS, M-LVDS,
or LVDM logic families. The TTL / LVTTL interface utilizes a
programmable voltage source, which sets the output logic levels
from 1.4 V to 3.6 V. Programmable thresholds of 1.5 V, 1.8 V,
2.5 V or 3.3 V (5 V compatible) are supported for input signals.
Recommended operating input voltage range is from 0 V to
5.5 V.  
A windowing method is utilized for PCI memory accesses, which
limits the required PCI memory space for each board to only 16
MB, thus preserving test system resources. A direct mode, for
continuous data transfer between the test system controller and
the I/O pins of the GX5292e is also supported.

The GX5292e offers 256 Mb of vector memory, with 64 Mb per
channel. Programmable I/O width allows trading vector width
for vector depth. Under software control, the GX5292e’s vector
memory can be configured to support channel  widths of 32,
16, 8, 4, 2 and 1 with corresponding vector depths of 64 Mb,
128 Mb, 256 Mb, 512 Mb, 1024 Mb, and 2048 Mb per channel.
The GX5292e provides programmable TTL/LVTTL output clocks
and strobes, and supports external clock and strobe. A
programmable PLL (phase locked loop) provides configurable
clock frequencies and delays. An LVDS input and output clock is
also provided.
The GX5292e’s sequencer can halt or pause on a defined
address or loop through the entire memory as well as loop on a
defined address range or through a defined block of memory,
address range or through a defined block of memory. Two
modes digital test are also supported – a Stimulus / Response
and a RealTime Compare mode. The Stimulus / Response mode
is used for driving and capturing data. Alternatively, for digital
tests requiring long test vectors, the Real-Time Compare mode
can be used to significantly shorten overall test times by
comparing in real-time, expected test results and logging only
failed vectors and resultant test results (pass or fail).
