Maximize Production Throughput with the IOT8700 Series

Notas de Aplicação

Introduction

Test engineers are consistently challenged to shorten production test time and improve production throughput. This document will explain how engineers can improve production throughput through different recommended configurations.

 

Advertising Interval and Packet Count

This section demonstrates how a device’s advertising interval affects the test time relative to the number of packets. The Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) has 40 channels in a 2.4-GHz unlicensed band. Devices advertise on channels 37, 38, and 39 on a regular basis known as advertising intervals, which can be set from 20 milliseconds (ms) to 10.24 seconds. To reduce the collisions between advertisements of multiple devices, a pseudo-random value from 0 to 10 ms is automatically added to the fixed interval.
