and Functional Tests
Functional testing is a critical part of the
product development process, and it is
essential for high-stakes industries such
as automotive, military, aviation, and
medical. By testing products at each stage
of development, engineers can identify
and fix problems early on, saving time
and money in the long run.
That is why design engineers rely on high-quality functional testing equipment.
Through accurate, reliable, and redundant test systems, you can ensure that your devices:

■ Meet performance requirements

■ Maintain cost-efficient power usage

■ Hold up to their operational environment

■ Meet regulatory standards

In addition to functional testing equipment, engineers also need access

to data acquisition systems. Data acquisition systems collect data
from sensors and other devices and monitor the performance
of products in real time. Data acquisition systems identify
problems early on and can also be used to collect
data for analysis and troubleshooting.

The Importance of Data Integrity
The data collected by data acquisition systems is essential for product development and testing. It is important to
ensure that the data is accurate and reliable. There are several factors that can affect data integrity, including:

Signal integrity is the signal quality transmitted from the sensor

to the data acquisition system. Signal integrity can be affected
by noise, interference, and other factors.

Synchronization is the process of ensuring that the data from

different sensors is collected simultaneously. Synchronization is
important for ensuring that the data is accurate and consistent.

Data logging is the process of storing data for later analysis.

Data logging is essential for troubleshooting problems and
tracking product performance over time.

The Benefits of Improved Data Acquisition

There are several benefits to improving data acquisition. Improved data acquisition can lead to:

■ Quicker product development by identifying problems early on

■ Higher test accuracy and reliability by ensuring that the data is relative and reliable

■ Enhanced cost savings from fewer expensive tests

■ Easy regulatory compliance by ensuring that products meet regulatory requirements

Functional testing and data acquisition are critical for product development and testing. By using the right
equipment and techniques, engineers can improve their data’s accuracy and reliability, leading to faster
product development, highertest accuracy, enhanced cost savings, and easy regulatory compliance.

This guide will cover why testing and measurements are so important to the success of your
designs, starting with Data Acquisition.

Data Acquisition Instruments and AC Sources

Enable Refrigerator Test

The global white goods market, including refrigerators, is experiencing significant growth, with consumers
increasingly adopting connected home appliances and emphasizing energy efficiency. Manufacturers need
help in testing refrigerators, such as maintaining accurate and uniform temperatures, ensuring recovery
times, and complying with energy-efficiency standards. The U.S. Department of Energy has proposed new
energy-efficiency standards for refrigerators to lower energy costs and reduce pollution.

A worldwide appliance manufacturer performs extensive tests on refrigerators in large walk-in

environmental chambers. They monitor temperatures, AC input voltages, and frequencies to assess
performance under different conditions. The manufacturer wanted to expand and upgrade its testing
facilities while ensuring global compatibility and compatibility with its proprietary software.

AMETEK Programmable Power provided solutions for both the

test system’s power supply and data acquisition aspects. The
manufacturer chose the Asterion AC AST 1501 single-phase
sources to test the refrigerators’ response to power fluctuations.
Two solutions were proposed for data acquisition: replacing
legacy data loggers with the EX1048A precision thermocouple
measurement instruments or using the EX1401 isolated thermocouple and
voltage measurement instruments for decentralized testing. The manufacturer ultimately
chose a hybrid approach using the EX1401 instruments in a centralized rack-based architecture.

AMETEK Programmable Power offers comprehensive drivers and turnkey software solutions to support
different programming environments, including the Virtual Panels graphical user interface and EXLab
software for remote control, monitoring, and data analysis. They also provide products for measuring
parameters beyond temperatures, such as vibration, audible noise, durability, and electrical safety.

The Need for Better
Data Acquisition
The only way to ensure your products work is through
high-quality testing and data acquisition equipment.
Testing is required if you want to validate your design
Finite Element Model with what is built in the shop.
The entire data acquisition process revolves around
sensors. Sensors monitor a physical property associated
with your device, converting that property into a
corresponding electrical signal. Different parameters
that engineers often measure include:
■ Temperature ■ Load or Force
■ Pressure ■ Rotation
■ Flow ■ Acceleration
■ Strain
For instance, putting a sensor on an engine can help
you measure the engine’s response given specific
stimuli. Is the engine getting too hot at certain speeds?
How does the engine handle certain environmental
conditions, such as rain or hail? Does the engine start
breaking down when facing operational vibration
levels or other forces? All of these questions can be
answered with sensors.
The Complete Guide to Better Test and Measurement
The Importance of Signal Integrity
Signal integrity is the quality of an electrical signal. In
the context of data acquisition, this means the accuracy
of your test results. Signal integrity is key when using
sensors to gain insight into how your products function.
Since the real world is imperfect, signal degradation
is bound to occur with every test. Especially when
dealing with lengthy cables and external noise sources,
the measurements can be contaminated by noise and
interference which compromise the desired data. This
is particularly true at connection points.
While you cannot expect perfect signal integrity, if
enough degradation happens, you will end up with false
test results, completely ruining the validity of your data
acquisition system. With how expensive and time-intensive
functional tests are, you need to secure the signal integrity
of your data acquisition systems as much as possible.
A data acquisition system with high signal integrity is a
system that you can trust. Having good signal integrity
also means that your results will be repeatable. That is
important because you need to have repeatable results
to help prove that the results are indeed accurate.
Non-repeatable results are no results at all.
So how do you ensure that your data acquisition
system has high signal integrity? The first step is to
ensure there is no leakage or sources of error
throughout your data acquisition system. The second
step lies with signal conditioning.
VTIinstruments.com 5
 T E S T E D E X P E R I E N C E
Signal conditioning manipulates a signal to prepare it for
the following processing stage. Think of it in similar terms
to translating a language or converting energy. Sensors
require signal conditioning before your data acquisition
system can accurately measure the signal – i.e., the test
results. Types of signal conditioning can include:
■ Amplification ■ Filtering
■ Excitation ■ Isolation
■ Linearization
While signal integrity can degrade as the signal moves
from one instrument to another, you essentially have the
same effect if you have improper signal conditioning. Either
will give you false results and/or cause your test to fail.
The best way to maintain accurate test results is to have
built-in signal conditioning. Not only does this lead to more
efficient data acquisition systems, but it can also help to
mitigate signal degradation from the conditioner.
The Complete Guide to Better Test and Measurement
How to Obtain High-Speed Synchronized
Data Acquisition
There needs to be more than one suitable sensor. To
maintain accurate and reliable data acquisition, you often
need multiple high-quality sensors placed all over the
product you are testing.
For instance, when testing a new fighter jet, you will
probably need to place hundreds or thousands of little
sensors all over the aircraft. Remember, you are not just
testing for one thing when you perform a functional test.
A single fighter jet – potentially destroyed in the test – can
cost millions of dollars. You need to test out as many
capabilities and properties as possible, using as many
sensors as possible, not to waste the test.
How you distribute those sensors and allow them to
work together as part of a complete data acquisition
system is essential. This is where synchronization and
scalability come into play.
The right data acquisition system will provide box-to-box
synchronization to help precisely correlate all acquired
data. Synchronization ensures your sensors, controllers,
and every other testing instrument integrates correctly.
The more unified and integrated your system is, the faster
and more efficient your data acquisition will be.
When you can easily integrate and synchronize multiple
devices, your data acquisition system is scalable. This
is important when you require large data sets or when
your testing and data acquisition needs change.
Properly synchronized and scalable systems will have
the architecture to handle anywhere from tens to
thousands of channels.

 A Note on Testing Confidence

With the dynamic, high-stakes nature of

modern manufacturing, many engineers
are often up against tight deadlines due
to ever-increasing product throughput
demands. These demands dictate
having minimal test system downtime
while simultaneously placing a high
level of importance on accuracy so that
tests do not have to be repeated. That
is why ensuring reliable test data and
fast instrument calibration are key to
the success of any production team.
In order to move quickly, while also
confidently, data acquisition systems can
be integrated with added intelligence to
facilitate maximum system uptime while
increasing manufacturing efficiency.
Added intelligence such as Built-In-Self-
Tests (BISTs), self-calibration, lead-wire
calibration, and shunt calibration can be
utilized prior to a critical test to ensure
confidence that your data acquisition
system is ready to go.

The Importance of Functional Tests:

Switching and Black Box Testing
Functional tests are what help you to validate your
designs. They allow you to monitor and record data on
the physical integrity and performance of your machines
and equipment and streamline the testing of complex
electronic systems.
A lot of functional testing revolves around black box
testing. Black box testing is where you test out software
by examining its functionality without knowing or
considering the internal structure of the software. The
main goal is to verify that all operational requirements
are met, looking at everything from the end user’s view.
Black box testing is the gold standard for qualifying
equipment in many high-level industries, and ensuring
your black box testing is up to code should be a top
priority. Testing is a critical step to ensuring that whatever
design capabilities you had in mind have transferred to
the actual product.
Automated test equipment (ATE) can help to ensure
that your black box testing is efficient as possible. The
more automated you can make your functional tests—
without compromising their ability to output reliable
data—the better. Switching systems play a vital role in
automated test systems by allowing ATE engineers to
distribute Input/Output (I/O) instrumentation to multiple
test points. ATE engineers rely on automatic switching
systems to ensure high-speed testing where strict
sequences and combinations must be observed.
Specifically, relays, which are electronically operated
switches, help enable automated tests with strict
sequences and combinations of switching. The most
common types of relays used in automated test system
switching are:
Using automated switching systems can mitigate the
chance of testing errors and inaccuracies, especially
regarding human error. The configuration of your
switching system is determined by your test specification,
which comes from the functional test that you are
performing. This leads to more standardized and
repeatable test sequences.
Why Tests and Measurements
Need to be Accurate
When performing a functional test, accuracy and
reliability are of the utmost importance. You must be
able to count on the results of your tests to qualify
any equipment properly.
Since your switching system can affect the accuracy
of your functional tests, you will want to prioritize
better switches and relays. The ideal switch or relay
will have the ability to:
■ Meet the current, resistance, and
voltage needs of your application’s
testing parameters
■ Minimize voltage drop and resistance
across the switch during tests
■ Reduce rise time and fall time during
state changes

■ Electromechanical relays

■ Reed relays

■ Solid-state relays

 T E S T E D E X P E R I E N C E

However, since no system is ever perfect in real life,

you must factor in the effects of the switch itself and
your switching hardware when calculating overall
system accuracy. As signals encounter various forms of
interference and sources of error when traveling to a
destination, signals are often degraded when passing
through a connecting cable or switch point. This is
especially true with unshielded cables, which often cause
current leakage that impacts measurement accuracy.

While no switch is perfect, designing better switching

systems will help to minimize any impact on test results
and thus improve the accuracy of your functional tests.
The importance of high-quality switching systems is
even more apparent when discussing one-shot
destructive tests.

The Importance of Modular
Switching Software
When designing switching software, it is best to take a
modular systematic approach. Rather than treating your
switching system as an afterthought and trying to assemble
a collection of individual switch modules, a proactive
modular approach allows you to consolidate everything
into a single mainframe. This results in an optimized
switching system with a high-channel count capacity
and a reduced footprint.
Modular switching systems also give ATE engineers the
design flexibility to use domain-specific modules (i.e.,
power, RF, and low-frequency) that can be combined to
cover whatever range of the signal spectrum you need.
Switching systems depend on individual switch modules
to operate like a single subsystem, interfacing through
external cabling, mass interconnect panels and test
adapters to construct higher channel count multiplexers
or matrices. Ignoring how everything comes together as
a unified system can lead to:
■ Delayed Development Timelines
■ Increased Switching System Complexity
■ Integration Difficulties
■ Reduced Signal Integrity
 A Note on One-shot
Destructive Tests
If you only have one chance at
something, you need the best testing
systems to ensure you take advantage
of your opportunity. In the military and
aerospace industry, you often test costly
equipment and do one-shot tests that
cost millions of dollars. This is because
many tests are destructive and can ruin
the equipment you assess, like when
testing an aircraft’s fuselage. Get the
test wrong, and you are throwing out
millions of dollars and countless hours
of work and designing.
That is why redundancy is so critical.
If you destroy millions of dollars’ worth
of equipment for a test, you will want to
measure different points with multiple
testing systems to ensure the test is not
a complete failure if one of the systems
goes down.
