1.0 Introduction

Equinox has developed a range of plug-in user-replaceable 'I/O Connector Modules' which are
designed to interface the Equinox 'PPM3 Programming Module' to a variety of different Target
Systems. This plug-in approach allows the required connection system to be tailored to a particular
Target System or Test Fixture without the requirement for unwiring the Test Fixture.
The currently available 'I/O Connector Modules' are as follows:
•
EQ-IOCON-1
•
EQ-IOCON-2
•
EQ-IOCON-3
•
EQ-CALCON
Features:
•
Plug-in 'I/O Connector Modules' – simply plugs into the mating sockets on the PPM3 Module
•
Different connector methods for interfacing to the Target System can be implemented by
simply plugging in the relevant 'I/O Connector Module'.
•
Programmer or Test Fixture can be easily swapped out without the requirement for unwiring
the Test Fixture
•
One programmer can easily be used with multiple Test Fixtures
•
New connection systems can be implemented using a new 'I/O Connector Module' without
requiring any redesign of the PPM3 Module.
•
IO-CON-2 Module supports 'wire-wrap' connections
•
IO-CON-1 / -2 support clip-in wire 'Fast Connect' wiring system
•
EQ-CALCON Module provides a 32kHz oscillator under programmer control
•
Target Vcc LED - illuminates when the 'Target Vcc' is detected
•
Auxiliary Power available via screw-terminal connections
