Good Stuff Happens in 1:1 Meetings: Why you need them and how to do them well
Ifdis Brochure
1. Portable and Rack-Mount
• Detects and isolates circuit intermittent
IFDIS
faults at the root cause of electronic
integrity and NFF problems
• Tests the 3 Cs: cables, connectors and
chassis (LRU)
• Detects intermittencies <50 nano-seconds
• 256 test points per N-compass unit
• Monitors all test points continuously and
simultaneously
• Probability of intermittency detection >
106 compared with traditional digital test
equipment
• Daisy chain’ multiple units together for
increased test point coverage
• Digital processing provides rapid and
precise data-handling and failure
location graphics for ease of use
• Instant visual results and data analysis
• Rack- Mount allows the options of
multiple N-compass units to be combined
into a single unit. Intermittent Fault Detection
US Patent #5744967, additional patents pending
