Overview

The FlexATE Mixed-Signal Functional Test System Platform is a complete integrated test solution designed to test common electronic device functions using state-of-the-art measurement hardware, test fixtures and test execution software. It is ideally suited to low to medium volume, high product mix, high product value applications where a reduction in batch turn around times is vital. FlexATE Features include:

• High-performance PXI modular instrumentation from National Instruments.

• Mass-interconnect interface allows many different devices to be tested using a single test system.

• Small system footprint with ergonomic design ideally suited for production facilities.

• Reduced cabling through the use of standard connectors and a custom switch interface.

• Commercial off-the-shelf modules integrated together as a complete turnkey system.

Benefits

• Reduced time to develop new functional testers since only the fixture needs to be built.

• Reduced capital cost in deploying testers, as test hardware can be re-used for multiple products.

• Extended system lifecycle due to the system’s modular approach and the use of off-the-shelf components.

• Reduced risk by using components from industry leading vendors such as National Instruments, Virginia Panel and Agilent.


Typical Applications

• Low to mid-volume / high mix functional testing

• Printed circuit board testing

• Medical device testing
