Product Validation & Design Validation Testers

What is a Product Validation (PV) Tester?

  • Tests the reliability of product performance and the production process by taking samples of real production parts.
  • Product dependability is tested through repeated application of a wide variety of stimuli over extreme temperatures and vibration conditions with high-precision measurement.

What is a Design Validation (DV) Tester ?

  • Measures the validity of a device against its design criteria, with various electrical and mechanical stimuli.
  • Takes into account the achievability of the device and what it was designed to do in the early product development cycle.

How do we design and build our testers ?

We have two different approaches to the design of PV&DV Testers, depending upon your application, we can choose either method or a combination.

  1. Off-The-Shelf measurement and control components such as Measurement Computing®, IOtech®, National Instruments®, Keithley®, Agilent®, etc. , with PC control of the test. These allows rapid development and design. Advantages are a wealth of existing products to choose from.
  2. Distributed control and measurement using our CANMETER® Real-Time Test System. This system utilizes custom processor boards for each unit under test to form a test pod. Each pod then communicates via CAN to the host PC for data storage and Graphical User Interface. Advantages are minimal latency, excellent scalability, and minimal wiring.
