美国的两大ICT测试商,agilent和teradyne.我刚参加工作时主要用teradyne的多。
Agilent Technologies has introduced the Medalist i3070 Series 5
in-circuit test (ICT) platform, marking 20 years since the company
launched the first members of the 3070 ICT family.
The Series 5 ICT system offers new analog measurement technology
together with a 12-MHz hybrid pin card, giving electronic
manufacturers 20 to 30% throughput improvement over the current
i3070 at the same list prices. The Series 5 ICT system also offers
new infrastructure that allows manufacturers to incorporate
external circuits easily for added test coverage while providing
better control of those circuits. Instead of having multiple sets
of external circuits in multiple fixtures, manufacturers can now
put the external circuits in the test head. Agilent reports it has
identified partners to provide high-speed flash programming, LED
testing, and boundary-scan testing via these external circuits.
Current users of i3070 and 3070 PC systems can run most of their
ICT programs seamlessly on the new Series 5 tester. Fixtures built
since the introduction of the 3070 remain compatible.
"Cost of test is a critical challenge for our customers," said
Daniel Mak, VP and GM of Agilent's Measurement Systems Division.
"The i3070 Series 5 enables reduction in cost of test without
sacrificing any coverage. With a 20 to 30% ICT throughput
improvement, customers can improve test efficiencies enabled by the
new and improved source measurement engine in the Series 5 ICT
system. And the addition of external circuits removes expensive
test steps from their test processes."
The Series 5 ICT system addresses an array of in-circuit and
functional test needs, including IEEE1149.6 boundary-scan standard
testing and limited-access test applications for highly complex and
small-footprint boards in sophisticated consumer electronics, data
communication, automotive, aerospace and defense and medical
applications. The test system has been able to test low-voltage
components reliably since the introduction of the 3070.
