"Cassini's ability to measure accurate phase and amplitude on multiple RF and microwave ports provides the lowest cost of test to the high volume production of Active Array Radar Modules. Cassini's highly configurable hardware and software combined with an integrated vector calibration delivers the speed, accuracy and repeatability necessary for production test. A typical Active Array Radar Module customer will realize actual test time reductions up to 420%," said Mark Roos, Chief Engineer and CEO of Roos Instruments.
Cassini provides fully integrated hardware that is under direct control of the software thereby avoiding layers of additional firmware. A command and control interface with a low overhead protocol replaces the common GPIB bus, enabling fast communication with all Cassini instruments. Cassini uses the latest PC platform to calculate the desired result from the raw measurement data. The extraordinary processing power of the PC enables Cassini to make complex calculations and measurements in very short amounts of time.
Roos Instruments has been shipping the Cassini platform since 2007 and Cassini systems are currently operating in North America, Europe and Asia.
