 Typical Project Development Process 

During the typical design phase of a functional test system, many considerations need to be noted. It starts with an analysis of UUT capacities and a review of the test specifications. The result of this phase should be a list with counts of such items as pins, measurement methods, and required instrumentation. Based on this overview, the system’s instrumentation, mass interconnect (design and count of plugs and wires between system and fixture), and the fixture (bed of needles, adapter based, and size and count of connections) can be selected. Now the major task begins: the definitions of the pin layout of the mass interconnect (and fixture) and the design of interconnection. Additional features such as standby current consumption (or measurements under load) and additional production requirements, including setup of variants and the preparation of the same system for other projects, may add additional complexity to the design  

Simplifying the Development Process Using the Keysight Technologies Functional Test Platform 

The Keysight Technologies, Inc. pre-configured functional test platform is designed as a generic, readyto- go test platform to help save effort in every phase of a project. It offers the flexibility to upgrade or downscale as required. Plus, the pre-configured test platform allows users to focus on the specific requirements of the UUT and project, such as specific instrumentation, the UUT adapter, or the UUT test plan. 

Save Effort in the Design, Integration, and Application Process

 During each stage of the process, the design of Keysight’s pre-configures functional test system saves you time and effort.  

Pre-Conigured Functional Test System Tools Keysight TestExec SL software 

The Keysight TestExec SL software reduces development time. The TestExec SL software comes preinstalled on the industrial PC (IPC) and is ready for software development. It provides a complete test development and test execution environment which also allows the user to organize and order tests, reconfigure the tests, profile the execution speed, and debug tests. The software provides an efficient and effective structure for developing the test plans and sequencing for testing tasks. Several key features in the TestExec SL help the user reduce software development time: 

1.       Accelerated test development: Action wizard supports multi-language action code writing topology; editor/switch manager with streamlined switching topology configurations 

2. Streamlined test execution: Simple hierarchical structure and advanced executive tools, including advanced sequencing and test flow controls, and debugging tool

3. Increased productivity: Throughput multiplier enables parallel multiple-UUT flashing for higher throughput while the test profiler helps to evaluate and analyze post-testing performance

 4. Integrated test efforts: Open architecture using Microsoft COM standard for easy sharing; data logging and reporting with customizable format for database systems 

Pre-Conigured Functional Test System Tools

 The TestExec Switching Manager simplifies the creation of switch paths in the test plan. The entire hardware connection information of the test solution is already integrated into the Topology Editor on delivery. This helps the programmer to quickly develop the application and focus on the initial tasks  The Switching Manager provides an overview of the entire measurement chain, including available instrumentation, inner system wiring, fixture connection, and wiring and UUT pin out. During the setup of switch paths in the Switching Manager, no detailed schematic knowledge is required the programmer only needs to keep the system concept in mind  In-depth details like instrument addresses, pin/plug numbers, slot numbers, and relay numbers are not needed during test plan creation. The idea is to use easy-to-remember and descriptive names for all nodes. The Switch Path Editor leads the programmer quickly through the topology by filtering and finding adjacent nodes
