Patent attributes
The present invention system provides an interface device for product testing and is designed to shorten the operation time of product testing and enhance the flexibility of device interfacing. The interface device includes a physical layer (PHY) of a first transmission interface which is connected to a testing host through an interconnection line. A plurality of interconnecting devices are further provided for connection to the devices under testing (DUTs), and a protocol transform device is provided for connection to the PHY and the plurality of interconnecting devices. The protocol signal of the first transmission interface is transformed into the specific protocol signals of the various transmission interfaces and the first transmission interface supports plug-and-play and/or hot insertion.
