Abstract :
The authors present an ATE system designed for teaching practices about programmable electronic instrumentation, by means of GPIB and VXI instruments connected to a local area network (LAN). The aim of this system, intended for students of electronic engineering, is the introduction of more relevant technologies involved in hardware instrumentation for ATE applications, besides the handling of their software environments for developing programs.
