Three Expanded Functions

The new EP Package expands three functions to the current available T2000.

  • Low-Cost Multi-Site CPU Configuration
    Multi-site CPU configuration offers multi-site CPU functionality with cost in-line with that of traditional single-site CPUs, with high throughput and multi-user environment.
  • Concurrent Test
    Concurrent test enables simultaneous execution of multiple test flows, as well as faster development of shorter-time testing programs, through these it contributes to lower Cost of Test and shorter Time to Market.
