How to use USBHub2x4 and MTM to work with multiple host machinesIn short, the best setup for you is determined by the type of handoff you would like between host machines and the flexibility you have to modify those host machines. Host 0 makes all…

Not only do we make Manufacturing Test Modules (MTM), we also use them to test our own products. Using BrainStem® MTM modules to make a functional board level test system is incredibly simple. For the USBHub2x4, MTM allows us to make a test system that requires no external test equipment…

Using BrainStem Python for Turning USB Device On And Off Simple task automation for repetitive actions can be powerful aids in product development. Automatically connecting and disconnect devices from a USB bus is commonly done in manufacturing test and software regression test systems.…

Setting up product manufacturing involves many complicated systems and processes. In order to produce millions of devices a month, companies need to massively scale these systems. Yet this scale is in direct conflict with fast product changes and time-to-market for "the next big thing". Major…
