Sep 19, 2024

Part Number: USC-IFD-00512

Product Specification Sheet: PIFD™ - Portable Intermittent Fault Detector™

Part Description:

The Portable Intermittent Fault Detector™ (PIFD™) product family is an advanced prognostic and diagnostic tool that is purpose-built to supplement traditional test equipment and address the decades old issue of intermittent failures.  The patented Intermittent Fault Detector™ (IFD™) technology, by Universal Synaptics Corporation, can simultaneously and continuously monitor every circuit path with a Unit Under Test (UUT) for intermittent failures as short as 50 nanoseconds.  This state-of-the-art technology is tightly packaged in a ruggedized, environmentally sealed, single-person carry case.  EMI properties and user safety are the basis for every design element.  To ensure a complete assessment of a UUT’s wiring integrity, the IFD also has the capability to perform other traditional hard failure tests.  Never has there been a more comprehensive and advanced wiring prognostic and diagnostic solution.

Standard configuration of this operations-level member of the IFD product family is 512 test points.  Configurations in fewer test points are available.  Refer to the Related Part Numbers specification below.
