Design and Test of Application-Specific Integrated Circuits by use of Mobile Clients

Abstract

The aim of this work is to develop a simultaneous multi user access system â?? READ (Remote ASIC Design and Test) that allows users to perform test and measurements remotely via clients running on mobile devices as well as on standard PCs. The system also facilitates the remote design of circuits with the PAC-Designer The system is controlled by LabVIEW and was implemented using a Data Acquisition Card from National instruments. Such systems are specially suited for manufacturing process monitoring and control. The performance of the simultaneous access was tested under load with a variable number of users. The server implements a queue that processes userâ??s commands upon request.
