AutoSite User Manual Glossary-9
Underblown Fuse
A fuse that did not disconnect as per manufacturer’s specification. These
fuses may test properly, but tend to be more prone to grow back when in
circuit, rendering the PLD useless.
Universal PLD
Programmer
A programmer that can apply power, ground, and any programming
pulse required to program any fuse technology device.
Universal Pin Driver
A pin driver with the ability to supply power and ground to every pin.
With Universal Pin Drivers, you can program and test devices without
having to use pin out adapters and characterizers.
Upload Data
A file transfer operation that involves sending data from the programmer
to a host.
Upload Host Command
A command that is sent from AutoSite to the host during an upload. The
command tells the host what to do with the incoming data.
Upload Wait
The length of time AutoSite will wait before it begins sending data to the
host computer after the host upload command is sent.
User Data Size
The hexadecimal number of bytes of a data block to use for a device
operation. Normally, this value is equal to the device size. During serial
set operations, this value works with Total Set Size to determine the total
number of bytes to program into a set of devices.
User Memory
The workspace used during device operations. It can be either internal
RAM or a disk file. Normally, RAM is used for small, quick device
operations, such as programming a single device, while disk is used for
larger device operations, such as serial set programming.
User RAM
The RAM in AutoSite. User RAM can be used as a source/destination for
an operation. Several operations use User RAM as a temporary storage
buffer, overwriting any data that may have been there previously.
Verify Device
A device operation that compares data in a programmed device with data
in RAM or in a disk file. With logic devices, verifying can also include
functional testing. Verify is an automatic part of the program operation,
but additional verify operations can provide useful information about
any errors.
Verify Pass
A verify pass is a trip through a device at a specified Vcc to see if the
device programmed properly. The pass is usually done once at 5V. The
pass can also be done twice, with the first pass at 5.5V and the second
pass at 4.5V.
Waveforms
Images of the programming pulses that program a device. Usually
created by programmer manufacturers and submitted to device
manufacturers as part of the approval process and to record the correct
programming spec for a specific device.

Wildcard
Used when entering filenames, a wild card represents one or more
characters in a filename. For example,
27*.dat
can represent both
27512.dat
and
27128.dat
.
Yield
The percentage of successfully programmed devices.
Yield Tally
The yield tally function keeps track of the programming statistics for the
last 16 types of devices programmed. The following statistics are kept for
each device type: the manufacturer name and part number, the family/
pinout code, the number of devices attempted, the number of devices that
programmed successfully, the number of devices that failed non-blank
test or illegal bit check, the number of devices that failed to verify, the
number of devices that could not be programmed because they contained
bits that required more programming pulses than were specified, and, for
logic devices only, the number of devices that failed structured vector
test.
ZIF Socket
An acronym for Zero Insertion Force. A socket into which the device can
be dropped and engaged via a lever.
