CompactLink Software
A PC based software package that allows users to add new devices to the library and
create functional tests to suit special applications.

New IC functional tests can be created using PremierLink IC Programming (PLIP), a


high-level descriptive test programming language optimised for generation of both
analogue and digital IC test programmes.

Thanks to the RS-232 link, software updates (available on the internet) can be
downloaded and programmed into the Compact units. Test results can also be
uploaded to the PC for analysis

CompactLink Software
Library Development Manager
The Library Development Manager displays all the devices added to the library and saved in the USER family.
All details are stored in the Microsoft AccessTM compatible database file located in the PremierLink folder.
The device data is organised in 20 families and can be filtered using the drop down menus. A device name or function can also
be typed in to facilitate the search. The list will be filtered to show only the entries containing the entered text. As an option,
intelligent sort produces a more logical list by using the numeric part of the device name only.

Device Definition
When a device is selected or created, the device definition
window appears. This allows the user to enter the information
related to the device as well as define its physical characteristics.
The name and function will be used by the database for sorting.
Parameters such as package, class, thresholds and output types
may also be selected.
The power and ground pins of the new device must be specified
using the pin out table.
