Products

RI7100A - Introduced in 1989, the RI7100 offered the industry's first, RF ATE solution designed for test applications up to 24 GHz. Still in use today, the RI7100 tests analog and RF ICs such as low noise amplifiers, mixers, tuners, and transceiver subsystems for consumer products and military applications.

CASSINI - Introduced in 2005, the Cassini ATE platform offers a completely redesigned architecture with modular instruments, a configurable test head, and an integrated device interface environment. Cassini test systems provide the ATE industry's widest measurement range, spanning from DC and high-speed digital to over 81 GHz. The configurable instrument architecture combined with a unique graphical programming environment enables flexible application design and expansion, rapid test development, and high-performance measurement capability.

Standards

SEMI Standards Implemented:
