Automatic test equipment or automated test equipment (ATE) is any apparatus that performs tests on a device, known as the device under test (DUT), equipment under test (EUT) or unit under test (UUT), using automation to quickly perform measurements and evaluate the test results. An ATE can be a simple computer-controlled digital multimeter, or ...
Electronic test equipment is used to create signals and capture responses from electronic devices under test (DUTs). In this way, the proper operation of the DUT can be proven or faults in the device can be traced. Use of electronic test equipment is essential to any serious work on electronics systems.
Embedded instrumentation can perform design validation, test and debug routines that external validation and test technologies cannot. An example of this would be Intel's IBIST technology which can stress and thereby test high-speed I/O buses well beyond the capabilities of traditional testing techniques that are applied through an operating ...
Types of electronic test equipment include: Automatic test equipment, any apparatus that performs tests using automation; Built-in test equipment, passive fault management and diagnosis equipment built into airborne systems to support maintenance; On-board diagnostics, test equipment for automobiles; Transistor tester, used to test the ...
A device under test (DUT), also known as equipment under test (EUT) and unit under test (UUT), is a manufactured product undergoing testing, either at first manufacture or later during its life cycle as part of ongoing functional testing and calibration checks. This can include a test after repair to establish that the product is performing in ...
One of the first computer-controlled BIST systems was in the U.S.'s Minuteman Missile. [citation needed] Using an internal computer to control the testing reduced the weight of cables and connectors for testing. The Minuteman was one of the first major weapons systems to field a permanently installed computer-controlled self-test.
The simplest definition of a switch is “a device that opens or closes a circuit.” [1] A relay is an electronically operated switch. Three relay types are commonly used in automated test system switching: Electromechanical relays are the most-often-used type because they have the largest signal range capability of the three.
The United States Food and Drug Administration classifies these systems as medical devices, under the general instrumentation category of automatic test equipment. [6]ATIS have seven basic processes (sample preparation, image acquisition, image analysis, results reporting, data storage, network communication, and self-system diagnostics) and realization of these functions highly accurate ...
