LabVIEW Literature & Demo Software Customer Application Solutions Customer Application Solutions Examples of real applications that VI Technology developed and describes the tools and techniques we used in these applications.   Enterprise TDM Solution Increases IC Characterization Efficiency This solution describes how a large semiconductor manufacturer and also a leading OEM supplier of hard disk drive preamplifier and motor controller solution was able to leverage an enterprise test data management solution developed by VI Technology to increase the efficiency of their integrated circuit testing and characterization process. PC-Based Testing of G.SHDSL Chipsets This solution describes an automated functional test system for DSL chipsets. The functional test system determines the performance, robustness and reliability of hardware and embedded software, analyzes failure modes, and performs tests under different scenarios to give feedback to the engineering design group. Real-Time Plasma Monitoring in Semiconductor Reactors This solution describes a functional test system that performs 2-D real-time monitoring of the field characteristics inside a plasma chamber. The system records data including the ion flux for later data reduction and analysis. Flexible Microwave and RF Power Transistor Test and Data Management System This solution describes an automated functional test system for microwave and RF power transistors. The functional test system tests a variety of transistor types using different test plans and different test stations. All test data is stored in a centralized database. Military Aircraft Multifunction Head Down Display Functional Test System This solution describes an automated functional test system that tests the operation of several Multifunction Head Down Displays using LabVIEW, IEEE-488 and RS-232 instrumentation, a unit under test interface panel, and a MIL-STD 1553 interface. Robust and Flexible Communications for LabVIEW using XML-RPC This solution describes an Extensible Markup Language - Remote Procedure Calls (XML-RPC) communication layer developed using LabVIEW. The XLM-RPC layer provides open connectivity between different test systems software developed in Java, C/C++, and LabVIEW to control multiple instruments. FDA Certification of Drugs for Open-Heart Surgery This solution describes a data acquisition and data management system that monitors a surgical process for the purpose of obtaining FDA certification on new drugs for open-heart surgery. The system records and plays back physiological signals, heart pacing signals, status of infusion pumps, and text and voice annotations. Rotary Machine Vibration and Balancing System See how to apply the latest technologies into a vibration and balancing system for rotary machinery. This application describes how to use commercially available equipment and software to rapidly develop solutions. Technologies used include National Instruments LabVIEW, Order Analysis Toolset, DIAdem, and PXI DAQ modules. Semiconductor Wafer Exchanger Characterization This solution describes an automated functional test system that characterizes a system that transfers semiconductor wafers from a work area to a polishing head and back to the work area. The system tests both 200mm and 300mm wafer exchangers and determines long-term reliability, root cause of failure, and system repeatability. Next-Generation Gas Delivery System for Semiconductor Manufacturers This solution describes an automated gas delivery system VI Technology developed using LabVIEW, data acquisition, and signal conditioning. The system uses statistical process control to predict problems with gas delivery and automatically adjusts the flow and pressure when necessary. PC Based Testing of POTS Cards This solution describes an automated functional test system for Plain Old Telephone System (POTS) Cards. While simulating the telephone lines, the functional test system performs parametric tests, measures voltage, current, resistance, and audio bandwidth response. Vision System for Fuse Inspection in Automotive Harness Assemblies This solution describes an automated functional test system that inspects fuses to guarantee proper fuse placement. The system manages the test data results by properly storing them in a database and later generating reports on this data. Automating Sample Preparation for DNA Sequencing This solution describes an automated system for preparing samples for DNA sequencing. The system integrates various types of laboratory equipment including a centrifuge, thermo-cycler, wash station, robotics, and a refrigerated storage unit. The system software uses XML as the communication protocol between the different instrumentation software controlling each instrument. Application Notes and White Papers Application Notes and White Papers In-depth technical papers that explain the techniques to develop test systems as well as measurement and automation systems. Characterization of Mixed Signal ICs This application note covers the hardware and software considerations of characterizing mixed signal ICs used in communication systems. The application note covers device stimuli, device response, timing and synchronization, test sequencing, instrumentation programming, IC programming, data management, and data analysis & presentation. The app note also gives a detailed example using these design techniques on how to characterize an analog to digital converter IC. Purchasing Versus Developing a Test Data Management Solution This white paper describes the benefits of using an off-the-shelf test data management solution versus developing a proprietary system yourself. Managing Test Data This application note covers the need for managing test data, advantages of using databases in test systems, an introduction to databases, designing a test database, relational databases available today, interfacing to databases, and connecting test software to databases.
