Manual pin-mapping and complex hardware integration can create significant time pressure during test execution. Join Kyle Voosen and Jan Lipowski on March 31st at 11 AM ET for a detailed demonstration of Test System Architect, our free graphical toolset that simplifies signal path design and prevents costly routing mistakes.

During the session, you will learn how to:

• Go from a simple test sketch to a fully configured system in minutes
• Optimize switching, simulation, and instrumentation selection
• Incorporate 3^rd-party modules and DUTs into your schematic
• Map schematics and link pins automatically
• Execute automated cable design to eliminate wiring faults
• Efficiently collaborate internally and with Pickering engineers

Secure your spot to streamline your setup process and reduce test cycle times.

Can't make it on March 31st? Register today, and we'll send you the on-demand video when it is ready.

Resolver Simulator vs. FPGA:

Choosing the Right Solution for Test Systems

In this new article, we compare COTS PXI resolver simulators and custom FPGA solutions for automated test equipment (ATE) design, focusing on cost, scalability, and performance.

By examining scenarios like maintenance challenges, total cost of ownership, and future scalability, the article concludes that while custom FPGA solutions may suit niche applications, COTS resolver simulators are generally more reliable, cost-effective, and scalable for most ATE needs.

Test System Architect Videos and Guides

We want to provide additional resources to demonstrate how Test System Architect (TSA), our free online toolset, simplifies the design, management, visualization, and documentation of automated test system switching and signal routing, saving development time and preventing errors. 

Along with the intro video, we also have some specific use case videos:

• A three-step workflow: detailing test system visualization, signal path definition, and automated cable design

• Watch Test System Architect in action: from sketch to configured system in minutes
