Abstract :
Test requirements continually increase the demands on switching products in automatic test equipment (ATE). Test systems for today´s semiconductor, medical, telecommunications defense, and automotive products require large numbers of switch channels with a wide variety of power handling and bandwidth requirements. At the same time switching products must fit within the test budget. By knowing what to look for, the test engineer can select a switch product that is cost-effective, not only at purchase time, but over the life of the test system
