Audio Test

Developing the G.R.A.S. Microphone Calibration System Using NI LabVIEW and National Instruments Hardware

Jacob Sondergaard
GRAS Sound & Vibration

"A key reason for selecting National Instruments modular hardware over traditional boxed instrumentation for our application was the ease of integration with LabVIEW, which shortened our overall development time."

Read case study

Automated test for audio devices is becoming more prevalent as the number of devices that contain a speaker and a microphone expands. To maximize throughput, an automated test solution is required for reproducible audio test results. Developing these test systems is becoming ever more challenging as the complexity of the devices continues to increase.

Additional Case Studies

NI PXI provides an ideal platform for audio test when combined with the high-performance NI 4461 modules. These modules feature two analog input and two analog output channels with 118 dB dynamic range. When you combine this with the flexibility of the PXI platform to expand channel count and generate other signals, you create the ideal hardware for audio test. NI AudioMASTER delivers a software architecture for quickly developing audio test steps and automatically placing them into NI TestStand software. This gives you a common tool from design and verification to final automated testing.
