Abstract :
This paper presents an ATE component-styled, test firmware architecture for a novel, flexible, multi-sensor for physiological monitoring. The device is fragile and the hardware components and connections must be verified for functionality before end application firmware evaluation. Additionally, the existing sensor firmware is updated to include a manufacturing test mode for additional system testing.
