LitePoint ZigBee Software Package
The LitePoint ZigBee Software Package expands ZigBee test capability to the large base of owners of the popular IQview and IQflex 802.11a/b/g/n one-box testers. IQview/IQflex has integrated Vector Signal Analyzer (VSA) and Vector Signal Generator (VSG) for faster test times. When installed, the ZigBee software package is automatically recognized by the IQview/IQflex test analysis software and the software integrates seamlessly into the test environment adding ZigBee test capability for both R&D and manufacturing applications.
ZigBee DUT (Device Under Test) test commands are made through the chip vendor's test control interface for faster set-up times and the unique LitePoint capture-once-measure-all hardware implementation allows full transmitter and receiver testing with very few signal captures for the fastest test times.
ZigBee software demodulates and displays critical transmitter measurements like EVM and carrier frequency offset with the same ease and test time as the basic power and spectrum measurements. For receiver testing IQview/IQflex internal VSG can send packets to the DUT and the IQfact software calculates the Packet Error Rate (PER).
Availability
The LitePoint ZigBee Software package is available now and is priced at US$2,200 and is licensed on a per-use basis with site license packages available.
