Emerging Technologies, LLC. was called upon to develop and build a servo-based DUT cycling system to replace an existing pneumatic cycling system. The existing DUT safety enclosure was to be re-used and interfaced by the new system. The purpose of the system is to cycle the DUT for a minimum number of cycles for the purpose of both breaking and detection of infant mortality. The interest in servo-based cycling stemmed from the need to eliminate the significant air consumption required by the original pneumatic cycling system.

Emerging Technologies, LLC. was called upon to develop an interface that could provide communication between a customer supplied device and a host computer. The interface also needed the ability to control the device I/O via RS232 request from the host computer. The MCU on the interface was programmed to put the device into communication mode using a proprietary synchronous communication. Data is read back from the device using a proprietary asynchronous variable baud rate communication. The information is then communicated with the host computer using standard asynchronous serial communication.
Additionally this interface utilizes optical isolation between the host computer and the device.
