Active Cable Modules

What Are Active Cables?

Active Cables combine the target ELECTRICAL and PHYSICAL interfaces into a low cost, replaceable assembly.

By simply changing the Active Cable Module, you can reconfigure your FlexROM III to emulate different device configurations, packages or voltage levels. This approach allows you to support multiple target configurations with a single emulator, reducing your initial investment. In addition, your tool invest-ment is preserved.

Update Target compatibility quickly and easily by swapping the Active Cable Module.

As memory technology changes, FlexROM III can adapt with new Active Cable Modules. Current Active Cable Modules support 8 bit, 16 bit, dual 8 bit or custom connections in 3 to 5Volt technologies.

Available Modules

Emulate multiple device technologies, without having to invest in multiple emulators.

ACM-8 Shown

ACM-8	Provides the target with 8-bit access and control to all available emulation memory.
ACM-16	Provides the target with 16-bit access and control to all available emulation memory.
ACM-2x8	Divides the emulation memory to provide dual 8 bit interleaved* or stacked** device emulation.
ACM-C	Provides the target with a custom interface to all Address lines, Data Lines, memory Control and Steering Logic. Interspersed grounds improve signal quality, reduce noise and permit longer cables.
