Use KPulse to create and export Segment Arb waveforms

This example demonstrates how to create a program and erase waveform using the KPulse flash

example file.

You will export the waveforms, which you can import into the Clarius Configure pane for the subsite

when Segment Stress/Measure Mode is selected.

Each segment pulse waveform must have the same total time. The minimum programmed time for

any segment is 20 ns (20E-9 s), but actual output waveform performance is determined by the

channel output capability.

To use KPulse to create and export Segment Arb waveforms:

1. If they are open, close Clarius and KCon.

2. Open KPulse.

3. Select File > Load Setup.

4. Select Kpulse_Flash_Example_01.kps.

5. Select Open.

6. Select Edit Segarb. This opens the edit dialog box for both channels. You can use copy and

paste to copy information between the channels.

7. Note that the trigger is set to 1 in the first and fifth segments. These are the first segments in the

program and erase pulses in a typical two pulse program/erase waveform. It is recommended

that you set trigger to 1 for the first segment of each pulse in a waveform.

8. For each unique waveform, export each to a file. Refer to

(on page 10-8) for the procedure.

For tests that are based on user modules, such as the program, erase, and fast-program-

erase tests, you need to define the Segment Arb waveforms by entering values into arrays for the

tests. These tests are based on user modules. The Segment Arb waveforms have been partially pre-

defined to reduce the number of parameters you need to enter.

The sign of the PulseVoltages array determines whether the pulse is positive (usually for a program

pulse) or negative (usually for an erase pulse).

The number of parameters and number of pulse channels in the test must be the same. The period

of each pulse waveform must be the same. If you accidentally enter a value in a field, delete the

value (do not use 0).
