Actions Semiconductor Orders Multiple Teradyne J750 Systems for Audio IC Testing.SHANGHAI, China -- Teradyne, Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :TER Third version. See bis. ) announced that Actions Semiconductor Co., LTD LTD 1 Laron-type dwarfism 2 Leukotriene D 3 Long-term depression, see there 4. Long-term disability , a leading Chinese MP3 SOC device vendor, purchased multiple J750 test systems to meet its testing requirements. Action will use the J750's Mixed Signal Option (MSO (1) (Multiple System Operator) Typically refers to a cable TV organization that owns more than one cable system, but it may refer to an operator of only one system. ) to test a new audio processor for an SOC device designed for MP3 players. In the competitive selection process, Teradyne was chosen based on the wide bandwidth, high density and best test economics of the J750 boosted by the MSO. The J750's MSO represents the highest test density instrument with the most source and capture channels to test more devices in parallel, at reduced overall cost of test. "We were impressed by both the performance of MSO and the level of strategic cooperation between Teradyne and Actions," explained Zhao Guangming, General President of Actions Semiconductor. "We believe that given Teradyne's support and technology, Actions will improve product quality greatly and get better competitive advantage." "In developing the MSO for the baseband, mobile, and lifestyle consumer markets, Teradyne envisioned a high-volume, cost-sensitive test solution," said SI Wei, Manager, Teradyne Semiconductor Test Field Operations, Greater China Region. "The high instrument density of the MSO is specific to Teradyne and differentiates our mixed signal test solution in the marketplace, which means we can provide customers like Actions a higher parallel device test at the best cost of test." About J750 MSO Teradyne's J750 with Mixed Signal Option (MSO) provides a new approach to testing microcontroller mixed-signal devices at up to 32 sites in parallel, using an efficient, graphical programming interface. It consists of a Low-to-Mid Frequency (LMF LMF lymphocyte mitogenic factor. LMF leukocyte mitogenic factor. ) Analog Signal An analog or analogue signal is any time continuous signal where some time varying feature of the signal is a representation of some other time varying quantity. It differs from a digital signal in that small fluctuations in the signal are meaningful. I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output Module (ASIO) and a companion Digital Signal I/O Module (DSIO DSIO DLA Systems Integration Office ). Both provide multiple device test channels on each module, with up to 32 instruments or sites supported in the compact, economical J750 test system.
