Teradyne Diagnostic Solutions Gives Early Preview of Its Testing Expo Product Launch



    TERADYNE DIAGNOSTIC SOLUTIONS has announced that it will be using
    this May's Automotive Testing Expo Europe event as a platform for the
    worldwide premiere of its latest product, an integrated tester named
    the i-VIEW(TM) Ultra.

    Teradyne is a global market leader in vehicle diagnostic and
    information systems, testing a vehicle every second all over the
    world. Its latest product launch for the production line will deliver
    unrivalled speed, power and reliability.

    On the modern production line, where a huge volume of data has to
    be programmed and installed into a vehicle from an increasingly vast
    file storage system, the system in the plant needs to select reliably
    from these files and install them onto the correct model at the
    correct time. The i-VIEW Ultra is an integrated tester that combines a
    VCI (Vehicle Communications Interface) with a built-in PC, and
    supports in-plant flash programming of multiple ECUs in parallel.

    The wide viewing angle of the display allows the device to be used
    in a number of ways by the operator, including mounted on the steering
    wheel. The fully integrated wireless PC platform provides a completely
    stand-alone solution or seamless integration into a networked plant
    configuration.

    In advance of Testing Expo, the full specification of the i-VIEW
    Ultra has been kept under wraps, but Teradyne has revealed some early
    details to indicate its confidence that the product will be unmatched
    in performance, from the "better than military-spec" rugged housing
    construction through to the maintenance-free cooling design and
    battery free operation.

    David Tunstall, Teradyne Business Unit Manager for the VCATS
    (Vehicle Configuration And Test Systems) product group, describes the
    new device:

    "This device is the fastest and most powerful of its kind. It
    features a large bandwidth for programming, parameterisation, testing
    and diagnostic functionality on many concurrent systems at once, and
    can operate as a stand-alone testing unit with its Windows XP platform
    and touch-screen.

    "It is based on Teradyne's latest generation hardware
    architecture, which is why it bears Teradyne's familiar i-VIEW brand
    name, and is upgrade-ready for future protocols."

    Full technical specifications, product images and more information
    will be available from the 8th May - the first day of Testing Expo -
    and full press packs will be distributed at the show, as well as
    regular product demonstrations at the Teradyne stand (hall 5, stand
    5000).
