The high-performance processing engines at the heart of Sat-Com systems are typically based around an advanced DSP and memory subsystem, often with a companion chip such as a microcontroller or FPGA, as well as various application-specific ICs and devices such as memory-card interfaces and I/O expanders. Testing of the prototypes and production boards, which are usually built in low volumes, has traditionally been carried out using equipment such
