GlossaryGlossary

This glossary defines terms and acronyms used in this manual

as they relate to the PS Series Programmers.

Alphabetical

8P8C ~

8 Position 8 Contact (also 8 position 8 conductor; it is often incorrectly called

RJ45).

Access door ~

Large sheet-steel hinged panels with latches on most sides of the machine. See

also, Safety shields, and Cabinet panels.

Actuator Plate ~

A plate that opens a socket(s) for loading a device(s).

AH500( ~

The Software for operating PS Systems. Also, a folder on the C: drive in Handler

computer.

Air regulator ~

a valve which reduces the pressure of the incoming air to a set value.

algorithm ~

A software file containing specific step-by-step calculations required by the pro-

grammer to program a device.

Allen Wrench ~

Hex Key, Umbrako key,

AutoPak ~

see Digital I/O.

boot ~

see Start.

bus ~

A set of connections for connecting various functional units in a computer.

Cabinet panel ~

Large sheet-steel sides screwed to the machine frame. See also, Access Doors.

CFM

Cubic Feet per Minute, a volume/time measure of the rate of air flow.

One CFM = 28.32 liters per minute.

checksum ~

A computed value which is transmitted or stored along with the data in order to

detect corruption of the data.

chip ~

See Device.

chip feeder ~

A component feeder system which mounts onto, and feeds devices to, electronic

SMT Machines. Also called a tape feeder.

contacts

The electrically conductive metal leads on a socket module which conduct pro-

gramming signals from the programmer to the pins on the device in the socket.

continuity check

A preprogramming test that checks the device for electrical connections to the

socket. (No electrical connection to the die). Not all pins are checked during this

test.

DAB ~

See Diagnostic Adapter Board

device ~

A programmable integrated circuit. You may have heard other terms such as

chip, microchip, semiconductor device, PROM, or DUT (Device Under Test).

device package ~

The protective container or housing for an electronic device with external termi-

nals to provide electrical access to the components inside.

device tape ~

The device pocket tape, the devices, and the cover tape before they are sepa-

rated.

Diagnostic Adaptor

Board

(DAB) A circuit board that replaces the Socket Adapter Board for performing pro-

grammer hardware diagnostics.

Digital I/O ~

Provides 24 VDC for sensor systems throughout the PS System. It may also be

called the Modbus for Modular bus. See also, bus.

(Note that PS Machines prior to 2009 have an AutoPak, or I/O Controller,

instead of a Digital I/O.)

Door ~

See Access Doors.

E-plate 1 ~

PS588 Machines these are mounted horizontally. On PS288 & PS388 Machines

these are mounted vertically.

E-plate 2 ~

PS588 only; mounted horizontally,???

E-plate 4 ~

PS288 & PS388 only; it is vertically mounted to the frame.???

End a job ~

See Finish a job.

ESD ~

Electrostatic Discharge. ESD can damage programmable devices and other

static sensitive electronic components.

Ethernet ~

The most popular type of local area network, which sends its communications

through radio frequency signals carried by a coaxial cable. Software protocols

used by Ethernet systems vary, but include Novell Netware and TCP/IP.

FEPROM ~

Flash Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. Similar to EEPROM but eras-

ing can be done in blocks or to the whole chip.

firmware ~

Software stored in ROM or PROM; essential programs that remain even when

the system is turned off.

Finish a job ~

Let the machine program the preset number of devices for that job, or end it pre-

maturely by clicking the Finish button on the Run Window.

FLASH ~

See FEPROM.

FlashCORE ~

A programming architecture for socketed devices.

FlashCORE Adapter ~

A circuit board with 1 to 4 programming sockets that fit on any FlashCORE pro-

grammer.

FlashCORE II

(FC II)

FlashCORE II is the name of the second generation of FlashCORE programmers

with more flexibility and supports more microcontrollers than FlashCORE (FC I).

FlashCORE III

(FC III)

FlashCORE III is the name of the third generation of FlashCORE programmers

which can download jobs and program much faster than its predeseccors.

gantry ~

The rails that supports the pick and place head and moves it horizontally in the X

and Y directions.

GND ~

Ground

Handler Computer

This is the main PS System computer is access at the front of the machine in the

lower left corner.

Head ~

see PNP Head

HEPA ~

High Efficiency Particulate Air

Hex Key ~

A tool for removing screws; also called Allen Wrench or Unbrako wrench.

HIC Socket Adapt-

ers

Socket Adapters with High Insertion Count sockets.

Home position ~

A place at the back, center of the workspace where the PNP Head stops when

paused.???

I/O ~

Input /Output.

I/O Controller

Modbus Digital I/O. This replaced the AutoPAK in 2008.

JEDEC ~

Joint Electron Device Engineering Council.

job ~

A set of instructions, used by the PS Series Programmers, containing all the

device programming parameters required to set up and program a specific set of

semiconductor devices. Used interchangeably with task.

JTAG ~

Joint Test Action Group

kgf/cm

kilograms force per square centimeter.

kit ~

A collection of tasks that are run successively.
