ReFlex Power is a high density, modular programmable power system providing DC, AC and electronic load assets all under control of a single controller. It provides a reconfigurable, flexible platform ideal for ATE and production test environments where RFP can provide programmable stimulus and bias power as well as programmable loads for the device(s) under test. The EIA 4U high RFP mainframe can hold up to 12 single-slot modules or combinations of single, dual and triple slot wide modules to configure (or reconfigure) the system for the particular requirements at hand. The mainframe can support up to 6 kW of output power.
Up to 8 mainframes, potentially up to 95 modules, can be controlled via a single controller. The controller communicates to the individual modules via a high speed proprietary bus protocol, providing very high data rates and a high degree of deterministic control. The RFP controller communicates to the host controller via an Ethernet LAN connection designed to be compliant with the LAN Extension for Instrumentation standard, assuring interoperability and ease of integration. RFP system modules can be combined via the controller, permitting the creation of "virtual assets" with the voltage/current combinations required for a particular test regime. Creating "virtual assets" reduces the "logistical tail" and total cost of ownership.
The mainframe provides internal power distribution, cabling, I/O and power connection and rack mounting for 12-asset slots. The mainframe also supplies the signal and control bus fabric supporting multi-module series/parallel operation, complex triggering, fault I/O and inter-mainframe control infrastructure.
