RF-Antenna Communication Links Functional Test
The application encompasses functional tests of very large quantities of automotive antenna amplifiers, plus parallelization of tests by implementing several test stations in a rotary indexing table. The DUTs are inserted manually and after final assembly, they are loaded into the rotary table; this requires manual triggering by the operator.

Solar Array Simulator
Among other things, solar array simulators are required for testing satellite power supplies. An SAS (Solar Array Simulator), consisting of an interconnection of several Solar Array Simulator modules, maps the solar panels and displays the individual strings connected in parallel. Optionally, the individual SAS modules are monitored by a Second Level Protection, so that the test object is not damaged in case of errors with the voltage sources. Additional circuitry is implemented via project-specific test modules. The signal path to the DUT can be separated, e.g. for dynamic current measurements.The Keysight Solar Array Simulators used were specially developed for satellite applications and cover the significantly higher requirements regarding the control speed of MPP tracking compared to terrestrial applications.

Modular Functional Test Platform
LX-OTP2
The OTP² system platform has recently been available in both the PXI and LXI versions. The OTP2 system platform enables the cost-effective and fast implementation of function test systems based on defined modules and function blocks. Thanks to the open system interfaces, customer-specific adjustments can be made at any time without any problems. When considering options for your next generation functional test system, it is important to assess the entire life cycle of the system and the associated costs and efforts. Use OTP² to accelerate development cycles and reduce the development effort for new functional test systems.
