Testronic Labs Taps Ellisys for SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Testing Solution
Ellisys Protocol Test, Analysis, and Compliance Products to Play Major Role in Lab’s SuperSpeed USB Test Offerings
Geneva, Switzerland — March 14, 2011 — Ellisys, a worldwide leader
in protocol test and analysis solutions, today announced that Testronic Labs,
a leading provider of quality assurance services to the games, home entertainment,
software and hardware industries, has selected the Ellisys Explorer™ 280
protocol test, analysis, and compliance verification system for use in the
company’s SuperSpeed USB test and characterization program. The widely
deployed Explorer 280, the industry’s first SuperSpeed USB protocol analyzer/generator
system, provides deep-featured protocol and bus analysis, port emulation, and
compliance testing for SuperSpeed USB hosts, devices, and hubs.
"Ellisys is pleased to have been selected by Testronic Labs to play
an important role in delivering quality services to those Testronic Labs customers
working with this latest generation of the Universal Serial Bus" stated
Mario Pasquali, Ellisys president. "Our products will add superb value
to the comprehensive test and quality processes employed by Testronic Labs
and will ultimately enable their customers to confidently introduce new SuperSpeed
USB products to the marketplace."
Providing a Complete USB 3.0 Solution
The Ellisys Explorer 280 SuperSpeed
USB protocol test, analysis, and compliance system brings developers the industry’s most flexible and comprehensive
solution for performance characterization, analysis, and compliance testing
of USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 systems, silicon, and related products. With the industry’s
only fully hardware-enabled compliance test suite, Examiner™, users can
verify adherence of device or host operation to major portions of the USB 3.0
specification in just seconds. The Explorer’s powerful, script-based
generator provides the heart of the automated Examiner compliance test suite,
and also delivers the industry’s most capable port emulator, typically
used for characterizing a design’s robustness, error handling, and performance
capabilities. An intuitive and easy-to-use protocol analyzer completes the
major feature set, and includes popular Ellisys features such as InstantTiming™ and
stream-to-screen captures.
"The Explorer 280 system from Ellisys gives our SuperSpeed USB 3.0 team
the tools they need to completely characterize a given design or product from
top to bottom and provides the basis for comprehensive and accurate technical
feedback that our customers expect," said Johan Craeybeckx, CTO, Testronic
Labs. "The Explorer 280 gives us what we need to be able to verify adherence
to the specification and to fully stress and characterize a SuperSpeed USB
host, hub, device, or related software."
The Ellisys Approach in USB Test and Analysis
Ellisys prides itself
on innovations and technology leadership within the test & measurement
industry, adopting a philosophy to avoid the pitfalls and redundancy of "me-too"
design approaches, opting for an independent approach to tools development,
always in close collaboration with our developer-customers. Since 2000, Ellisys
has placed thousands of USB, Wireless USB, and SuperSpeed USB protocol test
and analysis products with satisfied customers in more than 40 countries. Ellisys
protocol analysis tools employ a highly configurable and intuitive multi-pane
and spreadsheet approach, desired by most developers. Ellisys USB and SuperSpeed
USB traffic generation tools, designed to emulate hosts and devices for purposes
of compliance, performance, and corner case testing, are widely regarded as
the most flexible and powerful available on the market.
