PXI: A Solution For Board Functional Test?
نویسنده
چکیده
Board functional test has of late been going through a bit of a decline, with the driving factors being cost and time to market and the progress of structural test technologies. Traditional board testers tend to be more the domain of the large volume manufacturers, while today more and more design companies are using subcontracts for PCB manufacture and test. The low volume manufacturers tend not to invest in automated board testers, but develop custom solutions, or even no functional test whatsoever.

1 [email protected] Abstract Usually, in large experimental physics facilities, systems based on the VME bus, are widely used both for the lower level of the control system and for data acquisition. It is common to use this environment also for those applications that do not really need its features. The PXI bus is an industrial extension of the well-known PCI bus used in the deskto...
متن کاملA magnetic induction measurement system for adult vital sign monitoring: evaluation of capacitive and inductive effects
Magnetic induction (MI) measurement technique could provide an unobtrusive contactless method for continuous monitoring of vital signs such as breathing and cardiac activity in bed. In this paper, we present a magnetic induction system to evaluate the feasibility of monitoring heart and lung activity and the preliminary measurement results. The excitation and detection coils are designed to be ...
