Up to 100 MS/s digitizer Viper

14-bithigh-speed

Product name
Viper

Tagline
Waveform digitizer with automated glitch and transient detection

Reasons Why

• VIPER embeds software tools, calibration and diagnostics
• VIPER analyses and detects DUT waveform glitches and transients
• Designed for characterization test benches and mass-production test cells

Overview
Viper is a massive-parallel high-speed voltage measurement system

• Scalable from 32 to thousands of channels
• Flags locations in the test program of extreme events

Requirement to measure Contact Resistance

• Current measurement is intrusive and requires changing the path from tester to DUT
• Voltage measurement can be added on existing loadboards by adding wires/traces

New method to identify contact resistance issues by only measuring less intrusive voltages

• Identify where in the test program excessive current is used
• Can be added to existing setups to debug issues
• No need to redesign interface boards or probe cards
