World's First PXI-based Flight-Line Test Set Completes Qualification Testing

World's First PXI-based Flight-Line Test Set Completes Qualification Testing

AUTOTESTCON 2003 - ANAHEIM, Calif. (September 20, 2003) - Geotest-Marvin Test Systems, Inc., a global supplier of electronic test equipment for aerospace, semiconductor, telecom, medical, industrial and military applications, announced that the MTS-206 ultra-rugged PXI-based Flight-Line Test Set has successfully finished qualification testing.

The qualification testing is part of the U.S. Air Force approval process.  The qualification is a combination of rigorous functional and environmental tests that validate its performance, and verify that the equipment meets the specifications and requirements set forth by the Air Force.  The environmental tests performed on the MTS-206 during the qualification included shock, vibration, temperature, humidity, altitude, and EMI.  

The MTS-206 is modeled after Geotest's field-proven AN/TSM-205, which has been successfully deployed worldwide and become established as an ultra-rugged and reliable test set for all operational theaters. The MTS-206 is PXI-based, leveraging the high-performance of the state-of-the-art PXI architecture with a rugged form-factor.
  
The MTS-206 includes a 14-slot PXI backplane supporting a PXI controller and 13 PXI instruments. Seven of the slots can accommodate 6U or 3U PXI or cPCI instruments, and the other seven support 3U instruments only. The design of the MTS-206 allows sufficient space for custom electronics, as well as system power supplies. Geotest also offers a wide range of PXI instruments for the MTS-206 such as measurement, stimuli, digital, switching, precision DC sources, programmable resistors, frame grabbers, and more.

U.S. Air Force approval of the MTS-206 is expected in November 2003.
