The ATE test programme software is a critical component and extensive reprogramming is required when changes need to be made, often at a substantial cost. software called PowerStar that streamlines and adapts to inevitable changes without extensive new programming. With ‘future-proof’ to ensure that as hardware requirements change and evolve, the test programs can adapt accordingly to ensure long-term usability.
blank test routines that provide a range of control, from single instrument functional control to full test procedures with easy- to-use parameter entries. Engineers can customise their programmes, without having to write code or assemble graphical components.

software when applicable” says Engler. ATE systems are useful data acquisition and diagnostic tools for testing a variety of electronics in various industries for automatically testing and identifying faults in electronic packaged components. However, as these systems age, integrators can modify or even repurpose as needed.
Given the initial investment in these systems, squeezing more value out of existing automated test equipment is the best way to reduce costs and ensure an adequate return on investment. For more information, visit www.
