| Abstract
|
As the serial data rate approaches 1Gbps and beyond, Instrumentation vendors have come up with different strategy for design characterization and production. We will explore 2 low-cost test methods by National Instrument and DFTMicrosystems.
DFTMicrosytems offers a compact module that can be integrated to customers test environment and test I/O speed from 2.5Gbps to 5Gbps. National Instruments offers a range of high-speed digital I/O devices from 400 MHz to 1 Gbps that can perform functional tests, handshaking, complex pattern generation, design characterization, and stimulus-response testing. |
