PATTERN SEQUENCING CHARACTERISTICS
Blocks – Separate sections of pattern program
that are output in a user definable order by the
Sequencer. Block pattern depth can be from 40
sequences (full channel mode) or 80 sequences
(half channel mode) up to the entire depth of the
TLA 7PG2. A maximum of 4,000 Blocks may be
defined.
Sequencer – A 4000 line memory that allows
the user to pick the output order of individual
Blocks. Each line in the sequencer allows the defi-
nition of a Block to be output, a Repeat Count for
that Block, A Wait For event condition for the
Block, the Signal state for that Block (asserted or
unasserted), and a Jump If event condition, with
a sequence line to jump to if the condition is
satisfied.
Sub-Sequences – Up to 50 contiguous lines of
the Sequencer memory may be defined as a Sub-
Sequence. A Sub-Sequence can then be treated
like a block. (Example: 15 Sequences of Blocks
are defined as Sub-Sequence A1. Now any line in
the Sequencer can output A1. Five calls to Sub-
Sequence A1 will be flattened out to 75
sequences at run time.)
Jump If – Jumps to the specified sequence if a
user defined event is true. The user defined event
is a boolean combination of the eight external
event input lines and the one-of-four intermodule
signals. The user defined Event is selectable
between level and edge (event going from false
to true). One Jump If may be defined for every
Block. The Jump If command works at all clock
rates, including the maximum half channel mode
rate of 268 MHz.
Wait For – Pattern output is paused until the
user defined Event is true. One Wait For may be
defined for every Block.
Assert Signal – One of the four inter-module
signals is selected to be controlled from the pat-
tern generator program. Signals may be asserted
and unasserted allowing true interaction with the
logic analyzer modules and with other pattern
generator modules. Signal action (assert or
unassert) may be defined for every Block.
Repeat Count – The sequence is repeated from
1 to 65,536 times. Infinite may also be selected.
One Repeat Count may be defined for every
Block. Note that a Repeat value of 10,000 takes
one sequence line in memory, not 10,000.
Step – While in Step mode, the TLA 7PG2, the
user can manually satisfy (i.e., click an icon) Wait
For and Jump conditional events. This allows the
user to debug the logic flow of the program’s
sequencing.
Initialization Block – The unconditional Jump
command allows the user to implement an equiv-
alent function.
