| Introduction
Technology is racing ahead
to ever higher levels of sophistication, power, speed and
performance. The ASICs, PLDs, FPGAs, FLASH components and
the like which power this technological revolution are
far more complex than ever before. Testing these devices
is a daunting proposition, requiring equally advanced testing
theories and hardware.
 eXpert
meets this challenge with:
- Increased performance
- Increased speed/throughput
- Increased fault coverage
While at the same time:
- Reducing the cost of test
- Reducing test and programming times
- Reducing set-up times
Revolutionary
Although the Automatic
Test Vector Generator (ATVG) used by eXpert is not
new, the fact that both ATVG and structured vector
tests have been combined into one tester is truly revolutionary!
Fast
eXpert's reprogrammable
test hardware allows for fast test times. eXpert achieves
test vector application rates of up to 33,000,000 per
second and accurate AC test measurements to 50 picoseconds!
Flexible
eXpert's use of RAM-based
programmable logic allows reconfiguration of the test
hardware under computer control to match ever changing
test requirements! |
