GPU/FPGA-enabled Automotive Camera Testing
At ATE 2024, Konrad Technologies (Booth #16010) will showcase new R&D, validation/verification, and production test capabilities using advanced PXIe and PCIe storage subsystems from RADX Technologies, designed specifically for automotive test applications.
For high-resolution, write-intensive SERDES camera production testing, Konrad Technologies will demonstrate its FPD-Link GMSL Camera Interface Test System, equipped with RADX’s new extreme-endurance Trifecta PXIe-SSD-1U.2 modules. These modules support up to 326 (formatted) PBW (Petabytes Written) – 30 times the endurance of standard PXIe SSDs. This endurance allows Konrad’s test systems to perform continuous, 24/7 circular buffer recording of eight 4k, 30-FPS, uncompressed SERDES cameras for over three years, significantly lowering total cost of ownership (TCO) by reducing the frequency of SSD replacements.
For ADAS/AD data collection or R&D applications that require rapid data transfer between systems, Konrad will also present its FPD-Link GMSL Camera Interface Test System with RADX’s new Catalyst-USB-SSD RAID Subsystems. These subsystems feature hot-swap RAID storage for PCs and PXIe systems, offering up to 32 TB of storage per subsystem and sustained sequential read/write speeds of up to 7 GB/sec.

Ultrafast Electrical LV 124 / LV 148 Fault Testing
Testing electrical faults and interruptions in accordance with LV 124 / LV 148 and related norms has historically required time-intensive manual methods, delaying product time to market.
To eliminate this bottleneck, Konrad Technologies has partnered with WKS Informatik to bring the first fully-automated electrical fault testing system to the Americas. RTStand automates test execution, data logging, and reporting. Any electrical component or ECU in a vehicle can be tested on the RTStand common platform.
