Application Notes
PXI-based automatic test systems (ATSs) are gaining the interest of test engineers, however the architecture and programming methods for these test systems are quite different than box-based ATSs. This application note explains the differences in system architectures and programming interfaces to help you understand and select the most appropriate programming interface (either SCPI or a direct access driver), for your application, and make your system integration job easier.
PXI Automatic Test Systems Challenging Tradition
Though rack-and-stack test systems based on box instruments are the majority of what is used in the market, more and more test engineers are transitioning to automatic test systems (ATSs) based on PXI or PXIe modular instruments. The increasing availability of RF and microwave PXI modules in recent years is helping to accelerate this transition.
