Description
GRL-V-UP-2SC is a comprehensive tester for USB Type-C® and USB Power Delivery hosts, hub modules, docks, monitors, and chargers. Fast, easy to use and cost-effective, V-UP is an ideal solution for testing in reliability and environmental chambers as well as high volume production.
V-UP tests USB Power Delivery negotiation and USB data loopback while monitoring low-level PHY and protocol errors. V-UP tests up to 2 ports concurrently at 200W power loading. 2 test cards each support loading of a single 100W USB-C® port. Using AC or battery power, V-UP supports field use cases such as automotive and chamber test environments.
Testing takes less than a few seconds with a single setup. Front panel LEDs indicate data enumeration, making it easy to operate and understand test status with minimal user training. Detailed test results can be easily recalled for analysis.
V-UP’s user-friendly software allows open API access, giving test engineers the flexibility to use their own software such as C#, NI TestStand, and Python.
