UTP 9010 Flextronics

• Development of a new PXI-based Hardware-Standard Platform for testing of 24-channel high-end audio-amplifi er in automotive applications
• Implementation of test procedures with Flextronics FTS and individual test steps in NI TestStand and NI LabVIEW
• Basis of the new concept shall be the NOFFZ UTP 9010 Flextronics

• Consideration of a comprehensive NOFFZ Load-, Audio-Switch-Concept (SCU)
• Function test for single boards and comprehensive EOLfunction test of whole modules in one tester via exchangeable adapter principle
• To include a DMM for measurement of bias current as well as determination of channels potential
• Loads shall be simulated at all channels with the different impedances to simulate loudspeakers with various nominalimpedances
• System shall be equipped with optical MOST25- and MOST150-Bus for comprehensive simulation of audio streams to the amplifier
