Detailed Open-LED Error Report Example
Consider a case where five AS1109s are cascaded in one chain. A 1 indicates a LED is on, a 0 indicates a LED is off,
and an X indicates an open LED. The open-LED test is only applied to LEDs that are turned on. This test is used with
a test pattern where all LEDs are on at test time.
IC1:[11111111] IC2:[111XX111] IC3:[11111111] IC4:[1X111111] IC5:[11111111]
IC2 has two open LEDs and IC4 has one open LED switched on due to input. 5*8 clock cycles are needed to write the
entire error code out. The detailed error report would look like this:
Input Data: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
LED Status: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 X X 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 X 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
Failure Code: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
Comparing this report with the input data indicates that IC2 is the device with two open LEDs at position 4 and 5 and
IC4 with an open LED at second position. For such a test it is recommended to enter low-current diagnostic mode first
(see Low-Current Diagnostic Mode on page 15) to reduce onscreen flickering.
Note: In an actual report there are no spaces in the output.
LEDs turned off during test time cannot be tested.
