Production testing
Note: Production testing typically continues for the life of the product.
Production testing ensures that, for each assembled device, the module is
installed correctly (I / O signals are passed between the host and module), and the
antenna is connected and performing to specifications (RF tests).
Typical items to test include:
•
Host connectivity
•
Baseband (GPIO, host / module connectors)
•
RF assembly (Tx and / or Rx, as appropriate)
•
Network availability
•
Host / device configuration issues
Note: The amount and types of tests to perform are your decision — the tests listed in this
section are guidelines only. Make sure that the tests you perform exercise functionality to
the degree that your situation requires.
Use an appropriate test station for your testing environment (see
requirements on page 72
integrated module.
Note: Your test location must be protected from ESD to avoid interference with the module
and antenna(s), assuming that your test computer is in a disassembled state.
Also, consider using an RF shielding box — local government regulations may prohibit
unauthorized transmissions.
Functional production test
This section presents a suggested procedure for performing a basic manual
functional test on a laboratory bench using an AirPrime embedded module and a
Mini Card Dev Kit. When you have become familiar with the testing method, use it
to develop your own automated production testing procedures.
