Smart device tester lines up at Mobile World Congress
Showcasing their newest test and test automation products for the wireless electronics market at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona (Feb 27- March 2) will be Advantest and W2BI, an Advantest Group company whose test automation products help customers quickly launch new high-quality smart devices.
“Under the banner of long-time MWC exhibitor W2BI, we will display two of our leading-edge products designed to measure the connected world and everything in it,” said Judy Davies, vice president of global marketing communications at Advantest. “Our diverse array of technologies is united behind the common goal of helping our customers to reduce their costs of test and get their products to market faster.”
Advantest’s IC measurement platform as well as the latest test automation product from W2BI will be on parade.
Advantest’s EVA100 tester (pictured) is designed for highly efficient evaluation and measurement of analog/mixed-signal ICs. It uses the same test sequences for both design and production measurements, allowing users to establish a standardised measurement environment throughout their operations.
By freeing semiconductor manufacturers from the need to invest time and resources in correlating test data from different systems, the EVA100 helps to achieve much shorter time to market for new IC designs.
Also at the stand, W2BI will demonstrate its new capability to support testing of LTE-M devices using the portable Micro Line Tester (MLT) which leverages cloud technology to test smart devices and IoT-based technologies. The system lowers the cost of testing during the development and production life cycles and provides a high level of scalability.
The MLT supports 4G, 3G/2G, Wi-Fi, BT and NFC test features.
