Test equipment

though beyond the scope of this glossary.

Semiconductors; Test equipment

DFT technique where a pin's output is wrapped back in to it's input (or the input of another pin). This can allow some testing of pins that are not contacted directly by the tester. Note: This ...

tristate

Semiconductors; Test equipment

A high-impedance third state for a device output.

pogo pin

Semiconductors; Test equipment

A kind of spring-loaded pin formed of two small tubular sections joined together with an internal spring and with a contactor formed on the end of the smaller tube; used to contact pads on a circuit ...

decibel (dB)

Semiconductors; Test equipment

A logarithmic measure of the ratio of two signal levels: dB = 20 log (Voltage1 / Voltage2) dB = 10 log (Power1 / Power2)Variants on the decibel (dB) used in spectrum-analysis and ...

discrete cosine transform

Semiconductors; Test equipment

A mathematical operation that compresses video data in JPEG and MPEG files.

cyclic redundancy check (CRC)

Semiconductors; Test equipment

A mathematically generated number that data receivers use to verify the proper bit arrangement in a bit stream.

common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR)

Semiconductors; Test equipment

A measure of an instrument's ability to ignore or reject interference from a signal that is common to the instrument's input terminals, but relative to ground. (Expressed in decibels.)
