Low-Cost A/V Card For SoC Testers Features 8 Independent Units

The Audio/Video 8 analog card is designed for the company's system-on-a-chip (SoC) series of testers. With eight independent units, it offers true parallel multisite testing. It reduces the cost of testing for cellular baseband and other mixed-signal SoC/SIP ICs by up to 20%. Unlike other mixed-signal SoC test options, analog resources don't have to be shared for multisite testing or the purchase of additional cards. It contains 16 audio capture cores and can include arbitrary waveform generator and digitizer functionality. Two versions are available: four source and four measurement units, and eight measurement units. Pricing starts at under $150,000 to upgrade existing systems.
