AQ2300 Series Test Platform
Next-Generation Modular Test Platform
The AQ2300 is a test platform for silicon photonics, semiconductors, optical fibers, passive components, and optical communications equipment. Building on the AQ2200, it offers faster processing, higher module density, improved data transfer and storage.
A comprehensive module lineup includes light sources, optical power meters, attenuators, switches, and source measure units. All modules can be synchronized through an advanced trigger system. The AQ2300 enables high-throughput, precise, and automated testing for demanding applications.
Covers Applications from R&D to Production
Frame Features
The frames are available in 3-slot or 9-slot types and can be flexibly adapted to small and medium-sized measurement systems.
- Expandable up to 18 channels with 2-channel modules
- Digital I/O interface can be selected
- 3-trigger synchronization systems
- Simplified response adjustment
- High-speed data transfer
- Measurement data storage up to 100 k points per channel
- Channel-to-channel and module-to-module isolation
- Hot swappable modules
- AQ2300 is incompatible with AQ2200 series modules except AQ2200-232 and AQ2200-242 sensor heads.
Digital I/O (Factory Option)
Receives the start-of-operation signal from external equipment and sends the end-of-operation signal to external equipment.
Digital I/O Interface Port Configurations
Save polling operations to monitor the timing of voltage or current generation start and end.
Various Trigger Synchronization Functions
The AQ2300 series SMU have trigger ports not only on the frame side, but also on each channel of the SMU. In addition, in-frame synchronization functionality is also provided, allowing flexible selection of the connection method.
Synchronize Frame with External Equipment
Synchronize Channel with External Equipment
