Introduction to SCOUT!

The highest performing, modular, and quickly launched mass interconnect system on the market

The Overall SCOUT Solution Offers All of These Benefits

Performance

DAKs designed with PCBs  incorporate comprehensive signal shielding for optimum performance.

Modularity

Simply remove a DAK Assembly and replace it with another or swap a DAK Assembly from one system to another system.

Total Cost of Test

Higher performance, lower maintenance cost and time, and increased modularity, helps to lower cost total cost of test over the life of the tester. 

Lead Time

Our research indicates a significant decrease in time-to-deployment when using a SCOUT solution over a cabled solutions.

Maintenance

Upgrading or maintaining an instrument, while using a DAK interface, will not affect anything else within the system.

Stability

Based on our conversation you will be building multiple test systems.  Utilizing COTS DAKs means that when identical systems are in use each interface connection will be identical also, unlike when using cables.

Amplify These Benefits with PCB Technology Within an ITA

Utilzing PCB ITAs increases system stability, provides increased performance, and decreases ITA wiring time as some of the few of many benefits. 

Consistent Performance

  • Traces within the board create interconnections between the components, and this interconnection layout cannot change with time, vibration, or environmental condition – unlike Cable interconnections which can and will change ultimately causing unreliable testing. 
  • This means that the circuit traces will be stable over time and provides consistent performance from initial use to final use.  
  • This stability also means that unit-to-unit consistency is very high when building multiple ITAs. 

Initial Cost Savings

  • ​It can take weeks to build and wire a wired ITA, whereas it will only take a few hours to assemble a PCB based ITA.  
  • This means that, in multiple ITA builds, the cost assembling PCB based ITAs will be exponentially lower than assembling wired ITAs. 

Long Term Cost Savings

  • Due to the superior signal integrity that PCB ITAs offer you will save money in the long run.
  •  Little to no maintenance 
  • Increased efficiency in test
  • No downtime spent repairing cabled connections.
