There are many applications …<br />

Communication System Panel TS-CSP<br />

is ideal for use in:<br />

• Functional test systems for<br />

telecommunication products such<br />

as mobile phones, cordless<br />

terminal equipment and associated<br />

base stations<br />

• Production testers for products<br />

<strong>from</strong> automation, sensor technology<br />

and telemetry sectors<br />

• Automotive test systems<br />

• EMC/EMI test systems as RF<br />

switch matrix<br />

• Lab test sets<br />

TS-CSP. The optimization of the panel<br />

for use in production systems and the<br />

integrated switching technique result<br />

in an extremely favourable price/performance<br />

ratio per test channel.<br />

Compact integration of basic<br />

functions into modular concept<br />

RF testpoints with signals in the frequency<br />

range <strong>from</strong> DC to 12 GHz can<br />

be set on the measuring devices under<br />

software control.<br />

What is more, node potentials, operating<br />

voltages and audio signals that<br />

have to be checked as part of functional<br />

tests can also be switched automatically<br />

via the Universal Switch<br />

Matrix TS-USM.<br />

Measurement functions for analog voltages<br />

as well as digital signal acquisition<br />

are already implemented in<br />

TS-USM. A programmable voltage<br />

source for analog output levels and<br />

digital output ports for DUT stimula-<br />

Two types of cabinets are available to<br />

accommodate either two or five switch<br />

matrix modules. This means that efficient<br />

solutions can be implemented<br />

even for small production test systems.<br />

The following switch matrix modules<br />

are available:<br />

• TS-USM<br />

Universal Switch Matrix: offering<br />

multi I/O functionality<br />

• TS-RFM<br />

RF Switch Matrix: for RF signal<br />

switching<br />

• TS-USMF<br />

Universal Switch Matrix Fixture:<br />

rugged fixture interface for use in<br />

production tests<br />

Two different RF Switch Matrix Modules<br />

TS-RFM with four or twelve relays<br />

are available for efficient RF signal<br />

distribution. The required number of<br />
