App Note: Create Custom Profile for Advanced Cable Tester v2
|
|
The Advanced Cable Tester v2 provides comprehensive cable testing against a variety of cable specifications for USB, Apple Lightning, and video, so meeting compliance standards is easy and achievable. However, those looking to test against more or less stringent test requirements can accomplish this by simply creating a custom test profile.
Creating a custom profile can be done in just a few steps! In our Application Note, "How to Create a Custom Profile with the Advanced Cable Tester v2", we've outlined how to do so, and included which criteria within each different test category, including pin continuity, DC resistance, E-Marker, quiescent current, and signal integrity, can be personalized to fit your needs.
