Enterprise Test 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. VI Technology Implements Advanced Printing Test System for PARC® PARC (Palo Alto Research Center, Inc., a Xerox subsidiary), a research and development pioneer in the field of advanced laser printing technologies, needed a solution for testing and analyzing the performance of a next-generation industrial printing system. This solution describes how the test system implemented by VI Technology provides PARC with the flexibility to use the print head test system both as a research and development tool and also as a platform for demonstrating their advanced industrial printing system capabilities to prospective customers. 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. 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. 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. 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. Benefits of Using SQL Server for Enterprise Test Data Management An enterprise test data management (TDM) system must run on a high-performance, secure database. This application note explains the benefits of using Microsoft SQL Server for enterprise TDM applications. The Components of an Enterprise Test Data Management System Automated test systems create large amounts of test data that is difficult to access and time-consuming to transform into meaningful reports. This application note shows how capture, organize and access components of a TDM systems solve this problem so that the value of test information can be recognized throughout your company. Integrating Legacy Test Systems into an Enterprise Test Data Management System This application note gives details about how companies can extend the life of legacy test systems by integrating their data into a modern enterprise TDM solution. Managing Test Data This application note covers the need for managing test data, advantages of using databases in a test system, an introduction to databases, designing a test database, relational databases available today, interfacing to databases, and connecting test software to databases. Understanding Test Performance Analysis Arendar 2006 provides built-in analysis and reporting tools that aggregate raw test data and extracts valuable information arming engineers and managers with the knowledge they need to improve their product’s performance, quality and manufacturability. This application note describes test performance analysis and reporting tools that are built into Arendar 2006. An Overview of OLAP Technology OLAP technology enables test engineers and managers to get results in seconds, allowing engineers and managers to have the right information at the right time to help them make the right decision. This white paper describes how OLAP technology provides new ways to analyze test data giving engineers and managers the ability to perform trend, comparative, and time-based analysis, among other things, in different dimensions such as time, region, operator, product, etc. Change Test Data into Information One of engineering and manufacturing managers' greatest challenges is making sense of the large amounts of test data generated by automated test. This white paper show how a TDM system can help engineers and managers transform test data into information that can be used to optimize product performance. Extending Test Into The Enterprise to Solve Test Data Management Challenges Efficiencies of automated tests have resulted in enormous quantities of test data. This white paper will show you how to use test data to lower costs, increase quality, and improve time to market by deploying an enterprise test data management system. Software Distribution Strategies for Automated Test Systems in Design and Manufacturing This white paper discusses the challenges design and manufacturing managers face when they need to upgrade or update their automated test systems to newer versions of software. Managing the lifecycle for an automated test system begins when the new test system is deployed and ends when the system is retired and replaced with a new system. 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. Integrate Analysis Software with Databases Using a Test Data Management System This application note explains various techniques for integrating different types of analysis software with test data in a TDM database in order to provide engineers and managers with easy and secure access to test results analysis and reports. Integrate TestStand with Databases Using a Test Data Management System This application note shows how a database can be used to capture large volumes of test data generated by automated test systems and also provide engineers and managers with real-time access to test results via the company Intranet. A test data management system, or TDM system, interfaced to a TestStand-based automated test system performs this function. Understanding Enterprise Solutions This application note describes how different types of enterprise systems are at work, giving companies a competitive advantage in areas including customer management, product management, supply chain management, and test data management. Whats New in Arendar 2006? Arendar test data management software provides an off-the-shelf product for capturing and organizing test data from test software and files and making it useful and universally accessible. This application note will give you an overview of Arendar’s overall capabilities while highlighting new functionality in the Arendar 2006 release including multidimensional test performance analysis, object-level security and hierarchical test data classification. Are You Ready for Enterprise Test Data Management? This white paper explains seven ways to tell if your company is ready to move up to an enterprise TDM system or if the time and expense might be misdirected? The Evolution of Test Systems into the Enterprise This white paper explains how enterprise test is solving test data management (TDM) challenges through new tools that do not replace, but instead build upon the advantages of automated test. 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.
