The Spectrum™ is a unique combinational in-circuit / functional test system that can lower overall costs and test times for manufacturers that prefer to combine functional and ICT test capabilities on a single system. Spectrum provides the ability to plug commercial-off-the-shelf VXI instrumentation into the system, a high fidelity switching board for interfacing functional instrumentation to the test fixture, and a software programming environment that supports easy development and integration of both in-circuit and functional tests.
