Axiom Test Equipment, an
electronic test equipment rental and sales company has published a very unique and
helpful new blog post entitled "Make Older Gear Work When New Test Equipment Cannot Be Found."
Since the beginning of the COVID plandemic two years ago, everything from housing
to cars to food to medical care has been increasingly difficult and expensive. Test
Equipment and other electronics items have not been spared during this time.
This article informs people on the different alternatives
available to them due to today's global supply chain challenges that prevents them
from finding the specific unit they're looking for. Shortages have led to a great
deal of creativity in electronic design and manufacturing when a part cannot be
found. Amplifier designers, for example, may have to change transistors and integrated
circuits (ICs) and with them the circuit materials that best suit the amplifier.
If it is possible to modify an electronic product with available components, then
comes the challenge of testing it with the measurement equipment that are available.
A different scenario can arise when the newest solution in semiconductor parameter
testing is not available "off the shelf" due to supply-chain issues. Whether for
designing or manufacturing a circuit or electronic product, semiconductor device
testing must still be performed if needed. A viable test solution may be an older
model that is at least in part capable of making the measurements of the newer tester.
The Keysight/Agilent Technologies 4155C Semiconductor Parameter Analyzer is
an older model that can perform within a major portion of the model B1500A’s test
limits and can provide a practical test "stand-in" when a model B1500A is not available.

Make Older Gear Work When New Test Equipment Cannot Be Found
Global supply chain challenges have forced many manufacturers to look back when
components are not available. It has been quite noticeable in the commercial automotive
market, which experiences a "new car season" every year and a great deal of anticipation
from consumers in search of new car models. In some cases, new car models have been
promoted, including electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs)
from leading suppliers, but dealers are without inventory because manufacturers
cannot get all the parts they need.
The same is true in many other markets, including for commercial, industrial,
medical, and military/aerospace electronic products where manufacturers may design
a new product based on what turns out to be a novel but hard-to-find electronic
device. Shortages due to the global supply chain that have been linked to the global
pandemic have led to a great deal of creativity in electronic design and manufacturing
when a part cannot be found. Amplifier designers, for example, may have to change
transistors and integrated circuits (ICs) and with them the circuit materials that
best suit the amplifier. If it is possible to modify an electronic product with
available components, then comes the challenge of testing it with the measurement
equipment that are available. As with automobiles, new models of test equipment
offer many solutions and can appear quite attractive for filling the needs of an
R&D laboratory or manufacturing production line. But what if the new test gear
has been delayed by global supply chain problems, or the new equipment simply is
not coming? Is it possible to handle the test requirements with older equipment?
