Marvin Test Solutions offers more than a broad catalog of PXI products, test executive and development
software packages, and legacy replacement products. Marvin Test Solutions partners with its customers
to provide solutions for your test & measurement applications.
Based on your requirements, Marvin Test Solutions can design a custom product to meet your needs,
or design and integrate a turn-key test system to test your products. Many of our
commercially available products started as a custom project designed to meet specific
customer needs. These services make Marvin Test Solutions unique in the industry – we are the
only manufacturer that offers hardware and software products as well as application
solutions and the only PXI provider that offers system integration services.
Working with Marvin Test Solutions to develop a test solution that meets your requirements , you
are working with an organization that understands more than just product design
and PXI, LXI, and GPIB architectures, but with an organization that thoroughly understands
how these products are integrated and deployed in test systems. The result is superior
solutions and faster time to test.
Our experienced in-house design engineering and test engineering staff will help
you complete your test solution on-time and on-budget. Whether your requirement
is a PXI instrument that no one else has, a GPIB instrument to replace an obsolete
product in one of your systems, or design and integrate a turn-key tester, we will
partner with you to make you successful and address your test requirements.
Custom PXI Products:
If you need a special PXI product that is not available from any PXI vendor, or
a modified version of one of our PXI products we may be able to help you. Many of
our Commercially available PXI products started as a requirement of a specific customer.
These include custom chassis product with unique interfacing capabilities as well
as analog and digital PXI instruments with unique capabilities.
Custom Legacy Replacement Products:
If you need to support old GPIB-based testers with obsolete instruments we may be
able to help. Marvin Test Solutions has a broad line of replacement products for obsolete GPIB
signal sources from Agilent (HP), Wavetek, and Tektronix. If the product you need
is not available, we may design a new replacement product to meet your needs. All
replacement products are guaranteed to be 100% form-fit-function replacement for
the instruments they replace and you will not need to change any of the existing
software on the legacy tester. We know that this may sound too good to be true but
our long list of satisfied customers including the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy
are the proof that our legacy replacement products are the ultimate obsolescence
replacement solutions.
Turn-Key Test Systems:
Our experienced staff of test engineers can help you design and integrate your next
custom tester. Our broad design and integration services include the following:
- Test requirements analysis
- Development of a Test Requirements Document (TRD) if one is not available
- Test system design, development, fabrication and integration including hardware
(electrical & mechanical) and software
- Design, development, fabrication and integration of custom assemblies needed to
meet the overall test requirements

Program Set (TPS) that will allow you to test, troubleshoot, and maintain your test
set
- Design, development, fabrication and integration of a calibration TPS that will
allow you to perform in-system calibration without taking the system apart
- Design, development, fabrication and integration of TPSs for your units under test
(should you decide to outsource these as well)

life cycle costs of existing products. We have helped our customers in the past
to improve the design of airborne and vehicle military products that resulted in
significant cost savings over the original design.
