An installation test system has a control device and one or more hand-held test devices. The control device and the one or more hand-held devices are in wireless communication via respective communication systems. The control device performs typical pre-power tests including insulation testing and ground testing. There is at least one hand-held device dedicated to testing for residual current in circuit breakers and another hand-held device dedicated to testing for loop impedance. The control device records all test data and stores data in storage.

In a measurement system, a signal probing circuit may provide probed signals by probing voltages and currents and/or incident and reflected waves at a port of a device under test (DUT). A multi-channel receiver structure may include receivers that receive two probed signals from the signal probing hardware circuit, each receiver having its own sample clock derived from a master clock and further having a respective digitizer for digitizing a corresponding one of the two probed signals. A synchronization block, external to the receivers and including a reference clock derived from the master clock, may enable the two probed signals to be phase coherently digitized across the receivers by synchronizing the respective sample clocks of the receivers while the reference clock is being shared with the receivers. A signal processing circuit may then process the phase coherently digitized probed signals.

A package substrate may include a circuit and a leaky surface wave launcher. The circuit may perform engineering tests and end-user operations using sideband signals. The leaky surface wave launcher may perform near field wireless communication. The leaky surface wave launcher may include a via and a strip line. The via may be electrically coupled to the circuit. The via may provide the sideband signals to and receive the sideband signals from the circuit. The strip line may be electrically coupled to the via. The strip line may be excited by the sideband signals to wirelessly couple the leaky surface wave launcher with an external device. The strip line and the via may be unbalanced such that the strip line generates a leaky wave that propagates at least a portion of the package substrate and an environment proximate the package substrate.

Devices for testing a DUT having a circuit coupled to an antenna are disclose. The device can include a DUT location, a probe, and a ground area configured to serve as an antenna ground area for the antenna of the DUT. The ground area includes a slot that the antenna feed impedance is not affected or not affected significantly. The probe is adapted to weakly couple to the antenna of the DUT via the opening to probe a signal when the antenna of the DUT is fed by the circuit of the DUT and/or in order to couple a signal to the antenna which is fed to the circuit of the DUT by the antenna.

Systems, devices, and methods for performing a non-contact electrical measurement (NCEM) on a NCEM-enabled cell included in a NCEM-enabled cell vehicle may be configured to perform NCEMs while the NCEM-enabled cell vehicle is moving. The movement may be due to vibrations in the system and/or movement of a movable stage on which the NCEM-enabled cell vehicle is positioned. Position information for an electron beam column producing the electron beam performing the NCEMs and/or for the moving stage may be used to align the electron beam with targets on the NCEM-enabled cell vehicle while it is moving.

An over the air, OTA, test chamber for testing at least one device under test, DUT, provided within the OTA test chamber which includes a thermal bubble component adapted to receive the device under test, DUT, comprising an air inlet adapted to supply air into the thermal bubble component, an air outlet adapted to remove air from the thermal bubble component and an airstream diffusor provided at the air inlet and adapted to diffuse an airstream supplied by the air inlet within the thermal bubble component.

The disclosure describes a process and apparatus for accessing devices on a substrate. The substrate may include only full pin JTAG devices (504), only reduced pin JTAG devices (506), or a mixture of both full pin and reduced pin JTAG devices. The access is accomplished using a single interface (502) between the substrate (408) and a JTAG controller (404). The access interface may be a wired interface or a wireless interface and may be used for JTAG based device testing, debugging, programming, or other type of JTAG based operation.

A test-and-measurement probe (200) for a test-and-measurement instrument (101), the test-and-measurement probe having a probe head (103) and a touchscreen user interface (250). The probe head is configured to obtain a signal from a device under test. The touchscreen user interface is configured to visually convey test-and-measurement information to a user and to accept user touch input. In embodiments, the touchscreen user interface is removably connected to a compbox (105) of the test-and-measurement probe, through a wired connection or wirelessly.
