IEEE 993-1997
IEEE Standard for Test Equipment Description Language (TEDL)
standard by IEEE, 06/19/1997
Full Description
Scope
This project will develop a standard to define a high order language used to describe the capabilities, configuration and control of test equipment. This standard is intended to apply principally to ATE system applications using Atlas test programs but it may also apply to ATE system applications using non-atlas test programs.
Purpose
The trial-use standard has been implemented by vendors. Further development was required to widen its use in the ATE community to generate a full-use standard. This PAR replaces the earler time-expired PAR for this project.
Abstract
Revision Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn.A language useful for describing Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) instrumentation and configurations, as well as Interface Test Adapters (ITA), is defined. Principally intended for testing environments using the ATLAS test language, TEDL can also be used to describe instrumentation in non-ATLAS environments.
