Embedded Instruments

Quick Instruments implement wide range of target functions. Dedicated embedded instruments are used for various test, measurement, debug and programming tasks. The instruments are specifically designed to communicate with a target device and to test/diagnose specific faults.

All our instruments are pre-developed, fetched from the off-the-shelf instrumentation library and compiled for a particular board under test using our back-end compilation servers. As a result, ready-to-use test firmware is available in just half a day!

QI FPGA Instruments

A set of instruments that run on FPGA logic

Frequency Counter

Universal non-invasive pulse/oscillator frequency counter on arbitrary FPGA inputs, including differential and reference clock pins (incl. those of MGT transceivers and RF ADC/DAC clocks).

Fast Flash IC Programmer

Fast link from JTAG to serial (SPI) Flash through the FPGA logic. The instrument receives image, programs and verifies the device.

Digital Pattern Generator

Generates arbitrary digital pattern of a given length on FPGA's any digital output pin.

Ethernet Basic Tester

Tests communication over Ethernet link performing structural tests, incl. send/receive ARP/PING packets.

Ethernet Stress Tester

Evaluates link quality by measuring Frame Error Rate (FER) during functional test.

UART Tester

Sends and/or receives data over UART links, intended to test UART/RS232/RS485/RS422/etc interfaces.

High-Speed I2C / SMBus Tester

High-performance instrument for sending/receiving data over I2C and SMBus interfaces.

Memory Interconnect Tester

At-speed test solution for interconnection lines between the host FPGA and a DDR memory device.

DDR Margining Tester (Xilinx 7 Series)

An additive option, which evaluates DDR data signals quality by building BER diagrams.

RF Channel Tester

Test solution for RF links attached to integrated data converters (high-speed ADC/DACs).

BER Tester (BERT)

Bit-Error Rate Test/Measurement (BERT) instrument generates/receives PRPG sequences on arbitrary high-speed serial links (FPGA gigabit transceiver).

Eye BERT with Mask

An additive graphical option for series/mass production test enabling quick and fully automated quality check based on Statistical Eye Diagrams.

QI Software Instruments

A set of instruments that use JTAG infrastructure

PinTouch

A versatile tool to test on-board LEDs, switches, push buttons, jumpers, simple devices and pin-to-pin connections to/from FPGA.

I2C Tester

Instrument automatically scans I2C bus, enumerates all connected slave devices, sends and receives data (single/multiple bytes) to/from I2C devices

SPI Tester

Easy-to-use configurable instrument for SPI bus integrity test and communication. Writes and reads bytes via SPI protocol in different communication modes (CPOL / CPHA).

ADC Measurement (Xilinx)

Instrument fetches measurements from FPGA's built-in ADC converters allowing to measure supply voltages and values on external analog pins as well as FPGA core's temperature.

DDR4 Connectivity Tester

Test and diagnostics solution for the electrical continuity of pin interconnections between DDR4 memory and the host device (memory controller) on FPGA.

SVF Player

A solution to program CPLDs via SVF files, control Boundary Scan devices and perform other arbitrary user-defined actions on JTAG bus.

FPGA IPs & Stand-Alone Instruments

A set of IPs and instruments customized to project requirements

Short configurable BS register

Short reconfigurable Boundary Scan register for speeding-up BS shift operations for different purposes, like e.g. flash programming.

IO conditioning IP

Setting electrical parameters (terminations, I/O standard, etc) on arbitrary pins for correct signal conditioning, e.g. for IEEE 1149.6 support.

JTAG to system bus bridge IP

Bridge IP to access embedded system bus of FPGA (AXI/Avalon/PLB) from JTAG port. Provides interoperability between FPGA's functional firmware and external JTAG test controller.
