An apparatus for testing an electrical component, having a simulation unit for producing a simulation signal, a plurality of test units, and at least one electrical connecting device, whereby the simulation unit and the plurality of test units are connected or connectable to each other in an electrically conductive fashion via the at least one connecting device, and the at least one connecting device has at least one electrical switch device, which is situated to make or break an electrical connection between the plurality of test units.

Apparatus having simulation unit for producing simulation signal for testing an electrical component

An interface unit for data exchange between a first processor of a computer system and a peripheral environment. The interface unit has a number of input data channels for receiving input data from the peripheral environment and a first access management unit. The access management unit is configured to receive a request for providing the input data, stored in the number of input data channels, from a first interface processor stored in the interface unit and from a second interface processor stored in the interface unit and to provide or not to provide the input data, stored in the number of input data channels, to the first interface processor and the second interface processor. A first priority and a second priority can be stored in the first access management unit.

Interface unit for routing prioritized input data to a processor

A method for configuring an interface unit of a computer system with a first processor and a second processor stored in the interface unit. A data link is set up between the first processor and the second processor. A peripheral of the computer system is configured to store input data in an input data channel and to read output data from an output data channel, and the second processor is configured to read the input data from the input data channel and to store output data in the output data channel. A sequence of processor commands for the second processor is created such that a number of subsequences is created.

Method for configuring an interface unit of a computer system

A method for implementing an adaptive interface between at least one FPGA with at least one FPGA application and at least one I/O module, which are designed as the corresponding sender side or receiver side, for connection to the FPGA, whereby a serial interface is formed between the at least one FPGA and the at least one I/O module, comprising the steps of configuring a maximum number of registers to be transmitted for each FPGA application, configuring a shared, fixed register width for all registers, setting an enable signal on the sender side for the registers to be transmitted out of the maximum number of registers to be transmitted, transmitting the enable signal from the sender side to the receiver side, and transmitting the registers, for which the enable signal is set, from the sender side to the receiver side.

Adaptive interface for coupling FPGA modules

An apparatus for measuring electrical variables includes an external measuring connection, and a converter that converts a plurality of measurement variables into respective electrical measurement variables of a single predefined type. A control device for controlling the converter is provided and at least one type of variable to be measured with the converter can be selected via the control device, and a converter for at least two types of variables to be measured respectively has at least one independent input stage that can be used to detect the measurement variable of the type to be measured and to convert it into a predefined or predefinable type of variable. An electrical signal provided at the measuring connection is analysed in a parallel manner with respect to at least two different criteria via at least two input stages for different types of variables to be measured.

Device and method for measuring and/or generating electrical variables

A device for testing an electrical component is provided, having a simulation device for generating a simulation signal, a testing device for connecting the electrical component, at least two connecting devices, and a selection device for selecting the connecting device, wherein the simulation device and the testing device can be connected in an electrically conducting manner to at least one of the connecting devices by the selection device and the individual connecting devices differ from one another in at least one electrical property. Thus, a device for testing an electrical component is provided with which in a simple manner the testing accuracy can be increased by minimizing the signal corruption due to a parasitic property of the connecting device.

Device for testing an electrical component

A method for synchronously providing data on distributed devices of a network includes storing, by a master device, an extrapolation data set including at least one update time point. The update time point is in the future and marks the beginning of an extrapolation interval. The master device transmits the extrapolation data set to a slave device. Starting at an update time point, new data is calculated separately on the master device and the slave device by extrapolation using the extrapolation data set available on both the master device and the slave device. The method steps are repeated for subsequent extrapolation intervals.
