Litepoint IQ2010

Connectivity Test System

LitePoint IQ2010- Standard Model Hardware for testing WiFi, GPS, FM and Bluetooth.

*** Note: WiMAX and NFC are options at additional cost. ***

The IQ201X test system uses multiple hardware blocks to provide concurrent test capabilities for GPS and FM technologies in parallel with WiFi, Bluetooth, WiMAX, ZigBee, NFC, and WAVE technologies. Multiple vector signal generator (VSG) sections provide signal generation capabilities for FM transmit (76 to 108 MHz), GPS transmit (1.57542 GHz), WiFi / WAVE transmit (2.15 to 2.7 GHz and 4.9 to 6 GHz), Bluetooth transmit (2.4 to 2.5 GHz), WiMAX transmit (2.15 to 2.7 GHz, 3.3 to 3.8 GHz, and 4.9 to 6 GHz), ZigBee transmit (2.4 to 2.5 GHz), and Near Field Communication (NFC) transmit from DC to 35 MHz.

Multiple vector signal analyzer (VSA) sections provide matching capabilities covering identical frequency bands as the VSG sections. Each VSA section consists of two digitizer (DIG) channels (I and Q) and associated quadrature downconverter. The VSG section consists of two arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) sections and a quadrature upconverter. NFC testing utilizes the independent AWG channels and DIG channels of the VSA and VSG sections to provide or accept signals to BNC connectors on the rear panel of the IQ201X test system.

The IQ201X test system includes software libraries specific to the particular communication standard of interest. A variety of signal creation and analysis routines are provided and are available through either a graphical user interface (GUI) or a C++ API. All data captured on the IQ201X test system is sent to the controlling PC over a USB 2.0 link and then processed according to the user’s instructions. All measurement functions provided in the GUI are also available through the C++ API for custom test-program automation in either manufacturing or design characterization testing.

Four RF device connection ports allow the IQ201X test system to accommodate a wide range of DUT configurations containing multiple communication standards. The IQ201X test system includes dedicated RF connection ports for GPS and FM DUT connections, and two common ports that allow for WiFi, WiMAX, and Bluetooth DUT connections. These dedicated ports allow the user to easily configure the IQ201X test system to the precise port topology of their DUT, ensuring maximum flexibility.
