It's a question that applies to so many research, development or test projects: how do you connect your I/O circuitry to the real world? The time overhead involved in developing interface circuitry for computer- or logic-based circuitry is almost always underestimated.

Think Back

It's worth thinking back over a few recent projects to consider how much time has been absorbed this way. Take a simple circuit, implemented on strip board; will the interface circuitry take a few hours, or a few days? Take the question further, to HILST applications or production testing of ECUs and the task grows exponentially. Aside from simple circuitry issues, we run into questions of housing and connectivity.

Testing is Expensive

Overruns and delays at this stage knock on through the entire business process to land hard on the bottom line.

What is Genix?

Genix is essentially an infinitely configurable connection box. It consists of a compact case with front-mounted controls and indicators. Inside it holds racks for a range of cards to provide a vast array of functions.

Each channel is individually controlled and configured via an authoritative, logical software interface to give total flexibility and unprecedented speed in implementing changes and modifications. Genix is the perfect signal conditioning system, with the powerful additional capability of flexible fault injection.
