Measuring And Testing Equipment

Digital Transformation, Internet of Things, Industry 4.0, and other mega trends are expected to drive the usage of connected electronic devices across industry verticals and increase the demand for electronic test and measurement equipment. Increased demand for connectivity, autonomous driving, and electric vehicles is expected to drive the need for new testing equipment across industry verticals. A report entitled ‘IoT and Hi-speed Communication Powering the Global Electronic Test and Measurement Market, 2020’, forecasts that the advancement of 5G and the implementation of Internet of Things (IoT) technology will help the market reach $18.94 billion by 2025, despite a decline of 0.7 per cent due to the pandemic. Powered by the digital transformation, IoT, Industry 4.0, and other mega trends, the use of connected electronic devices is expected to grow regardless of vertical, along with the demand for electronic test and measurement equipment.

Testing Equipment Electronic test equipment is used to create signals and capture responses from electronic devices under test (DUTs). In this way, the proper operation of the DUT can be proven or faults in the device can be traced. Use of electronic test equipment is essential to any serious work on electronics systems. Practical electronics engineering and assembly requires the use of many different kinds of electronic test equipment ranging from the very simple and inexpensive (such as a test light consisting of just a light bulb and a test lead) to extremely complex and sophisticated such as automatic test equipment (ATE). ATE often includes many of these instruments in real and simulated forms. Generally, more advanced test gear is necessary when developing circuits and systems than is needed when doing production testing or when troubleshooting existing production units in the field.
