The Dawn VME Products ITM-6973 performs an amazing range of applications, and tests such as OpenVPX Rule Compliance testing and certification, system design validation and characterization. Doubles as an important monitoring, data logging, and reporting device when included within deployed systems. Can data log and time stamp extraordinary events such as shock and vibration, operation outside of normal thresholds.
3U VPX Test Module performs a wide variety of functions and applications such as:
Compliance testing of VITA Rules for OpenVPX conduction cooled systems
Design Validation of systems based on Power and Thermal simulation of deployed board set
Emulate system operating current profile based on multiple current image mapping of actual modules
Measure power supply hold up time of voltage rails under various loads
Measure Peak-to-Peak noise on each voltage rail
Design Validation of planned deployed system
System Characterization of new products
Automatic system power and thermal characterization with graphical file output
Empirically test, measure and record thermal characteristics of a conduction cooled enclosure
Confirm power Supply set points for over-current and over-temperature
Thermostatically controlled heater keeps equipment operational in cold environments
