Revision 6 / February 20, 2007
The E737 is a precision measurement unit designed
for automatic test equipment and instrumentation.
Manufactured in a wide voltage CMOS process, it is a
monolithic solution for a per pin PMU.
The E737 supports two modes of operation: force cur-
rent/measure voltage and force voltage/measure cur-
rent. The E737 can force or measure voltage in the
range of -5V to +7V. In addition, the E737 can force
or measure a current of up to 40 mA over four distinct
ranges: ±40 mA, ±1 mA, ±100 µA and ±10 µA.
The E737 has an on board window comparator that
provides three bits of information: DUT too high, DUT
too low, and DUT fail. There is also a monitor function
which provides a real time analog voltage signal pro-
portional to either the DUT voltage or current.
On board clamps prevent large transient spikes when
changing operating mode or current range. Also, the
PMU will survive a direct short over the legal voltage
range.
The E737 is designed to be a low power, low cost,
small footprint solution to allow high pin count testers
to support a PMU per pin.

Circuit Description
Circuit Overview
The E737 is a parametric test and measurement unit
that can :
• Force Voltage / Measure Current
• Force Current / Measure Voltage.
The E737 can force or measure voltage over a -5V to
+7V range, and force or measure current over four dis-
tinct ranges:
• ± 40 mA
• ± 1 mA
• ± 100 µA
• ± 10 µA.
An on board window comparator provides three-bit
measurement range classication. Also, a monitor
passes a real time analog signal which tracks either
the DUT’s current or voltage performance.
Control Inputs
MODE SEL is a digital input which determines whether
the PMU forces voltage or current, when it is not placed
in a high impedance state by the HIZ input (see Table
1).
HiZ Mode SEL PMU Operation
1 X High Impedance
0 0 FV/MI
0 1 FI/MV
Table 1.
RS1 and RS2 are digital inputs to an analog MUX
which establishes the full scale current range of the
PMU. One of four current ranges can be selected by
using RS1 and RS2 as shown in Table 2.
Rext Nom RS1 RS2 Current Range
RA = 200KW0 0 A: ±10μA
RB = 20KW0 1 B: ±100μA
RC = 2KW1 1 C: ±1mA
RD = 50W1 0 D: ±40mA
Table 2.
Comparator Outputs
The comparator outputs DUT GTL, DUT LTH, and
PASS/FAIL* are open drain outputs. When active (logi-
cal 0), they will pull to ground. When disabled (logical
1 or DISABLE = 1), they require an external pull up
resistor to a positive voltage to achieve a high state.
Force / Sense
FORCE is an analog output which either forces a cur-
rent or forces a voltage, depending on which operating
mode is selected.
The SENSE pin is a high impedance analog input
which measures the DUT voltage input in the FI / MV
operating mode.
FORCE and SENSE are brought out to separate pins
to allow for remote sensing.
I/V MONITOR
I/V MONITOR is a real time analog output which tracks
the sensed parameter. I/V MONITOR functionality is
described in Table 3.
Disable Mode SEL I/V Monitor
1 X High Impedance
0 0 Measured Current
0 1 Measured Voltage
Table 3.
In the FI / MV mode, the output voltage is a 1:1 map-
ping of the DUT voltage. In the FV / MI mode, I/V
MONITOR follows the equation:
I(measured) = I/V MONITOR / (4.0 * REXT).
Using nominal values for the external resistors, I/V
MONITOR of +8.0V corresponds to Imax and –8.0V
corresponds to Imin of the selected current range.

Circuit Description (continued)
HIZ
HIZ is a digital input which places the FORCE output
into a high impedance state, regardless of the operat-
ing mode (forcing current or voltage.) This function al-
lows the PMU to be connected directly to the pin elec-
tronics without an isolation relay while NOT adding any
leakage current.
DISABLE
DISABLE is a digital input which places DUT LTH, DUT
GTL, I/V MONITOR, and PASS/FAIL* into high imped-
ance states.
Force Voltage / Measure Current Mode
In the FV / MI mode, VINP is a high input impedance,
analog voltage input that maps directly to the voltage
forced at the DUT (see Figure 1), where FORCE =
VINP.
A current monitor is connected in series with the Op
Amp driving the FORCE voltage. This monitor gener-
ates a voltage that is proportional to the current pass-
ing through it, and its output is brought out to I/V MONI-
TOR. The monitor’s voltage may also be evaluated
using the Window Comparator whose operation is in
accordance with the FV/MI functional truth table (Table
6).
I/V MAX and I/V MIN are high impedance analog in-
puts that establish the upper and lower thresholds for
the window comparator (see Table 4). In the FV / MI
mode, a maximum voltage input corresponds to at least
a maximum current output. Positive current is dened
as current owing out of the PMU.
I/V MAX
I/V MIN Comparator Threshold
+8.0V > Imax (full scale)
0V 0
-8.0V < Imin (full scale)
Table 4.
The voltage at I/V MONITOR follows the equation:
I(measured) = I/V MONITOR / (4.0 * REXT).
Nominally, the external resistors (RA, RB, RC, and RD)
should be chosen such that Imax * REXT = 2.0V.
Force Current / Measure Voltage Mode
In the FI / MV mode, IVIN is a high input impedance,
analog voltage input that is converted into a current
(see Table 5) using the following relationship:
FORCE = IVIN / (4.0 * REXT)
where positive current is dened as current owing out
of the PMU.
IVIN Forced Current
+8.0V Imax (full scale)
0V 0
-8.0V Imin (full scale)
Table 5.
The resulting DUT voltage is then tested via the SENSE
input by a window comparator, whose functional truth
table is shown in Table 7.
I/V MAX and I/V MIN are high impedance analog in-
puts that establish the upper and lower thresholds for
the window comparator. In the FI / MV mode, the refer-
ence inputs translate 1:1 to SENSE level thresholds.

Circuit Description (continued)
REXT Selection
The E737 is designed for the voltage drop across RA,
RB, RC, and RD to be ≤2V with the maximum current
passing through them. However, these resistor values
can be changed to support different applications.
Increasing the maximum current beyond the nominal
range is not recommended. However, decreasing the
maximum current is allowed.
Short Circuit Protection
The E737 is designed to survive a direct short circuit to
any voltage within the supply rails at the FORCE and
SENSE pins.
Transient Clamps
The E737 has on-board clamps to limit the voltage and
current spikes that might result from either changing
the current range or changing the operating mode.
Common Mode Error/Calibration
In order to attain a high degree of accuracy in a typical
ATE application, offset and gain errors are accounted
for through software calibration. When forcing or mea-
suring a current with the E737, an additional source of
error, common mode error, should be accounted for.
Common mode error is a measure of how the common
mode voltage, VCM, at the input of the current sense
amplier affects the forced or measured current values
(see Figure 2). Since this error is created by internal
resistors in the current sense amplier, it is very linear
in nature.
Using the common mode error and common mode
linearity specications, one can see that with a small
number of calibration steps (see Applications note
PMU-A1), the effect of this error can be signicantly
reduced.
Compensation Capacitors
COMP1 and COMP2 are internal op amp compensa-
tion pins that require a 120 pF capacitor connected be-
tween the two pins.
CAPI is an external noise compensation pin that can
be used as a low pass lter to eliminate noise from the
IVIN and VINP input pins through the connection of an
external capacitor from CAPI to GND. The relation-
ship between the roll-off frequency of noise ltered (in
Hz) to the external capacitance (in farads) can be seen
below:
Filter Frequency =
CA and CB are internal compensation pins that require
a 120 pF capacitor connected between them.
Power Supply Sequencing
In order to help protect the E737 from a latch-up condi-
tion, it is important that VCC All Input Voltages ≥ VEE,
and VCC ≥ GND ≥ VEE at all times.

Application Information
FORCE Pin Output Voltage (Positive Headroom
Requirement)
The maximum positive voltage that can be forced at the
FORCE pin by the Edge 737 in the force voltage/mea-
sure current (FV/MI) mode and the maximum compli-
ance voltage that can appear at the FORCE pin in the
force current/measure voltage mode (FI/MV) is a func-
tion of the positive power supply (VCC), device case
temperature (Tc), and selected current range. The plot
in Figure 3 depicts the typical positive voltage that can
appear at the FORCE pin for various power supply
combinations across the specied case temperature
range of the device. All plots represent the Edge 737
being used with a ± 2V full-scale swing across the ex-
ternal current sense resistors for each range.
