The approach to high-end aerospace/defense test system development is shifting from application-specific systems to common core automated systems to reduce overall cost and increase flexibility.

With the rapid growth in semiconductor content in today’s vehicles, IC designers need to improve their process of meeting functional safety requirements defined by the ISO 26262 standard. The ISO ...

Oxygen deficiencies, explosive atmospheres, and exposure to toxic gases and vapors injure or kill hundreds of workers every year during confined space entry procedures. The atmospheric conditions that ...

My first job after leaving school was that of an associate engineer. This meant that I was half technician and half engineer, and I would design something and then build and test it. Because of this ...

TRAX from Megger is not just another multi-functional test instrument, but rather many intelligent instruments built into one box. TRAX from Megger is not just another multi-functional test instrument ...

Semiconductor testing is com­plex, so it’s not surprising that the leading ATE companies have chosen disparate approaches to reducing cost. Each manufacturer has its own group of customers with ...

The United States automated test equipment (ATE) market is experiencing robust momentum, with industry sales projected at USD ...

Chip testing used to be straightforward. The development team used fault simulation to select a subset of the functional tests that could detect most possible manufacturing faults. These were ...

Tests that simulate the temperatures and pressures which the reactor systems will be subjected to during normal operation have started at the demonstration high-temperature gas-cooled reactor plant ...

Many patients have symptoms suggestive of coronary artery disease (CAD) and are often evaluated with the use of diagnostic testing, although there are limited data from randomized trials to guide care ...
