Why Choose NI for Parametric Testing?

Reduce Parametric Test Time

NI PTS offers up to 48 discrete channels of high-performance instrumentation to allow you to maximize test throughput and shorten the amount of time it takes to reach meaningful data insight. This massive parallelism and per-pin architecture comes without the requirement of a switch matrix, which protects signal integrity and ensures best-in-class measurement performance.

Modify Your System as Needs Change

With our modular PXI platform it is easy to scale and adapt systems to meet ever-changing demand.  NI offers PTS upgrade and expansion kits, so you can easily scale your systems as your needs change. In addition, NI PTS instrument support will grow over time, so our users can add modules without purchasing an entirely new system.
