Available in French, this annual report dedicated to test and measurement offers a comprehensive summary of the major trends which, given the proliferation of connected devices, are likely to impact the automatic test sector. Topics covered include the prospects for millimeter-wave communications testing, and how to optimize the use of test data in production to boost commercial results.
" As a strong advocate of excellence in automated testing, we work closely with our customers and suppliers to understand the key issues facing test and production departments. ", explains Luke Schreier, Automatic Test Marketing Manager at NI. " Que l’objectif soit de tester des millions d’appareils connectés à l’Internet des objets ou de gérer un système de test d’une vingtaine d’années, notre but est de susciter le dialogue chez nos clients pour les aider à réduire le coût des tests et à garder une longueur d’avance sur la concurrence. "
Le rapport d’étude 2016 sur le test automatique détaille les tendances suivantes :
- PROCESSING: Collecting test data in production. The semiconductor industry embraces real-time analytics to reduce production test costs.
- SOFTWARE: Lifecycle management is a software issue. Obsolescence, attrition of operating system users and compatibility criteria hamper projects with extended life cycles... A well-known problem that needs to be re-examined.
- ARCHITECTURE: The rise of test management software. Off-the-shelf test sequencers are effective solutions to the current flood of new programming languages.
- I/O: Standardizing platforms from characterization to production. RF PCB manufacturers practice IP reuse and equipment standardization throughout the product design cycle to reduce costs and time-to-market.
- STRATÉGIE D’ENTREPRISE : Les ondes millimétriques se propagent aux stratégies de test
Today's test managers are adopting modular solutions for cost-effective validation of high-frequency components.
