Electronic
Testing Equipment refers to that equipment with the help of
which wide range of signal and capture responses from electronic
devices can be captured for fault detection. The fault of an
electronic device can only be traced with the help of device under
test that is the devices which is being put under test. Automatic
Test Equipment often includes instruments of simulated forms. In
general in order to test advanced machinery one need to get
troubleshooting of an existing production unit.
- Platform on which Electronic Testing Equipment works:
Wide
range of modular electronic instrumentation platform is used in order
to test an electronic instrument which suffers fault. This type of
instrument is used to get an incoming inspection, quality assurance,
along with production testing of electronic devices. Among the common
platform which is being used stands the General Purpose Interface Bus
which is also known as GPIB. This device often have digital eight bit
parallel communication interface which is capable of achieving high
speed data transfer that is up to 8 megabytes. These devices can
connect up to 14 instruments at once. Other more superior devices can
have 24 pin connectors and it often has the most common input by
output interfaces present in it. GPIB instrument was developed HP.
Thus devices running on digital platform created a revolutionize
effect on the sphere of these testing equipments. In recent time IEE
standard digital interface are most commonly used. This instrument
has more than 500 specifications including that of stand command for
programmable instrumentation which defines specific commands.
- Types of Electronic Testing Equipment:
Electronic Testing Equipment often divided into basic equipment
and that of advanced
equipment. The basic equipment includes those of voltmeter which is
often used to measure voltage of any equipment, then comes the Ohm
meter which measures resistance, and last but not the least is the
Ammeter which measures the flow of current passing through the
testing equipment. On the other hand among advanced equipment
includes that of solenoid meter, clamp meter, Wheatstone bridge and
that of electrometer which are often used to check the faulty
electronic devices. In addition to this one also includes wide range
of analyzers among which logic analyzers which is used to test
digital circuits, spectrum analyzers which measures spectral energy
of signal and last but not the least protocol analyzer are also
included in this field which tests the functionality and performance
of a protocol.
In
conclusion all that can be said about Electronic
Testing Equipment that without help of this device no faulty
electronic instrument could be checked.
