A new paradigm of testing created a low-maintenance, high-throughput, scalable automated test-system ABSTRACTAdoption and integration of USB-C chargers and hubs in automotive applications is driving a need for an updated approach to production tests due to USB-C’s connector density, high…

Faster Testing. Fewer Errors. No Cable Flipping Required.USB-C is everywhere — powering laptops, phones, tablets, monitors, and more. It’s flexible and powerful, but with that comes complexity. If you’re managing production for USB-C devices, the challenge isn’t the port itself. It’s the testing.…

Cut Test Time, Eliminate Errors, and Scale Across Lines — No Cable Flipping RequiredIf you manage production lines for devices with USB-C ports, the real challenge isn’t the port — it’s the testing.A single bad port means a return, a delay, or a hit to your metrics. And catching it after the fact?…

USB-C functional tests involve a lot of cable plugging and unplugging, connector flipping, and device swapping.  Acroname's USB-C-Switch handles those connections for you, providing control through our HubTool GUI application or BrainStem API, even remotely!For this article, we'll look at…

The problem with USB TESTING Suppose you’re a test engineer working on USB compliance testing.  You have a well-equipped lab with some high-end test equipment.  But you’d rather be in your office doing other work than in the lab plugging, unplugging, and flipping cables while…

The need for USB-C and power delivery ports in automobiles is speeding up, and the auto industry is adapting to the new demands. As the engineer in charge of testing, you’ll need to up your automated validation testing game. We live in an on-the-go world, and our devices travel with us in our…
