Representative Office Automation Test Solutions

Quantity and complexity are the hallmarks of the electronic components installed in vehicles today. An ever-increasing level of engineering expertise is required to ensure quality and consistency. Successful automotive test solutions require a thorough understanding of automotive buses, such as CAN, J1850, LIN, KWP2000 as well as signal conditioning/loading technologies. Our technical insight can provide a major competitive advantage for carmakers who need to respond rapidly to industry innovation. Drawing on our experience with both ‘under the hood’ and interior electronics, IE provides test solutions for:

• Audio & Multimedia System Telematics
• Wireless & GPS Navigation System Telematics
• Interior Switches
• Engine Control Units & Modules
• Airbags
• Seatbelts
• Occupant Detection Systems
• On-Board Controllers


PC processors comprise only 2% of all 32-bit processor sales. Today, the vast majority of 32-bit processors sold each year - which include today's Pentiums and Athlon XPs - are used in embedded systems, not personal computers.

Today's average car has at least a dozen microprocessors on board, with higher-end models having over 60. And while 32-bit and 64-bit chips may be the most sophisticated, World Semiconductor Trade Statistics estimates that a quarter of a billion 8-bit microprocessors are still sold each month at $6 to $18 apiece.
