TERADYNE DIAGNOSTIC SOLUTIONS Launches i-VIEW Ultra at Testing Expo



    TERADYNE DIAGNOSTIC SOLUTIONS has launched its latest product, an
    integrated automotive tester named i-VIEW(TM) Ultra, which will offer
    unrivalled speed, power and reliability. The product is being
    showcased at Automotive Testing Expo Europe, Stuttgart, 8-10 May 2007,
    hall 4, stand 4226.

    The i-VIEW Ultra is an integrated tester that combines an
    exceptionally fast VCI (Vehicle Communications Interface) with a
    built-in PC, and supports in-plant flash programming over multiple
    channels concurrently. It is designed to cope with the modern
    production line environment, where huge volumes of data have to be
    reliably programmed and installed onto the correct vehicle, from an
    ever-growing file storage system, and then tested.

    The basis of the i-VIEW Ultra is an extremely robust yet
    lightweight unit, which exceeds military standards for durability. The
    6.5 VGA screen, with optional touch screen, gives a wide viewing angle
    and the device can be used and configured in several ways, including
    mounted on the steering wheel of any left or right-hand drive model.
    The fully integrated wireless PC (Windows XP) platform provides a
    completely stand-alone solution or seamless integration into a
    networked plant configuration.

    David Tunstall, Teradyne Business Unit Manager for the VCATS
    (Vehicle Configuration And Test Systems) product group, describes some
    of the market-leading benefits of the new device:

    "This piece of equipment is the fastest and most powerful of its
    kind, plus it is upgrade-ready for future protocols. 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.

    "In addition to its rugged exterior, it features design details
    such as a fully-sealed interior with no internal fans so its cooling
    system cannot be fouled by the factory environment. It boasts an
    infra-red interface and a solid state barcode scanner, and can run not
    only on batteries, but also on smartcaps: on-board capacitors that
    allow a power life of hundreds of thousands of cycles; fast charging
    in seconds; and all the benefits that fast boot-up and minimised
    down-time brings."
