Quickly Characterize Electronics Power Performance
Technology progress combined with an increasing desire for mobility and flexibility has placed tremendous pressure on electronics manufacturers to cut the power wire and rapidly adopt more efficient power systems in their designs. Because battery-powered and low power electronic systems have the unique challenge of balancing power performance and longevity, validation engineers must address understanding and characterizing battery and overall system performance requirements early in the design process.
- Provide an efficient way to validate power consumption across multiple power rails
- Scale effectively and adapt to changing requirements by extending capabilities
- Enable smart analytics through streamlined data setup, management, and reporting
