OpenATE
Combines Its QSPI Cards and NI-PXI Chassis for Most Effective
and Lowest
Cost MEMS Test Solutions
Challenges:
Traditional
pattern-based ATEs become less efficient and more expensive in
testing I2C/SPI
interface with multi-sites (16 sites in parallel).
Solutions:
A
PXI-based test system using OpenATEˇ¦s QSPI (Quad-Site Parallel
Interface) modular instruments and NI Chassis is the best solution
for MEMS IC, Analog IC, Power IC testing. QSPI card exhibits not
only superior performance but also excellent capability for digital
instrumentations. It
combines high-performance pin electronics, four I2C/SPI masters, four
32-bit counters, and supporting four PMUs per board in a compact 3U
PXI form factor.
Currently,
MEMS products for consumer electronics come with the I2C/SPI
interface. In order to optimize production efficiency, MEMS
companies are desperately looking for a new, low-cost ATE generation
with the I2C/SPI interface and parallel-testing capability.

OpenATE, an expert in IC
tester instruments, can provide complete lowest-cost test solutions
for semiconductor. Only one test platform can be used in development
laboratory or production testing, to help users simplify their
designs and testing process.

MEMS Test
Challenge
Motion sensor needs
to accelerate while seating into a DUT board during sensitivity test.
Thus, the handler and rotator become a key investment for MEMS
testing. Mechanical movement or rotation definitely requires extra
test times. In order to help solve this issue, OpenATE has designed
and manufactured a powerful QSPI test module which not only preserves
all test functions of a traditional IC tester but also provides the
I2C/SPI interface, parallel-testing capability. Each QSPI card can
test four sites simultaneously with the best performance and lowest
cost.
OpenATE's 16-site system for
complete lowest-cost motion sensor (gyroscope/accelerometer) test
solutions includes:
In short, PXI-based ATE system
with OpenATEˇ¦s QSPI can provide users with the following benefits:
1.
Smallest Size, Lowest Cost
Only
one five-slot chassis can provide complete 16-site DC/Function
Adding
one more chassis, users can expand as many test sites as needed
2.
Simplest ATE Test Software Platform
MTS2
software platform is easy to connect and integrate with other
handlers and rotators
MTS2
C/C++ development environments are very common and popular for
users
MTS2
with one test program can provide multi-site test functions. Only
one test program can test any amount of DUT.
3.
Most Flexible Test Platform
