One of the most challenging problems when choosing which software package to standardise on, is the resource available to carry out the development using the product.
LabVIEW from National Instruments, is one of the leading productivity tools available for developing a ride range of solutions for test and measurement and industrial automation applications. With such a historical pedigree it is becoming the standard development package within this community.
To address the growing demand by the industry to find suitable LabVIEW programmers quickly, inexpensively and in all areas of the world, a new focused recruitment web site has been developed. www.LabVIEWjobs.comhas quickly established itself as the site to use for both companies looking for LabVIEW programmers, and candidates who want to utilise their LabVIEW skills in a rewarding job role.
One of the founders of the company has spent the last seventeen years using LabVIEW, including version 1 on the Mac, and has seen the benefits first hand of employing the right candidate for the right role.
“It is clear that the successful completion of a LabVIEW project on time and to budget is only possible by combining the right talent at the right time in the project development cycle” says Sharon Hutchins, co founder of the company. She continues, “The site caters for all types of position including Permanent, temporary and contract. It also offers the opportunity for students to find year out internships with companies using LabVIEW. Another exciting aspect of the site, is that we are finding candidates from all corners of the globe looking for jobs where they can use their skills. LabVIEW is clearly a global success story, and we are there to help companies who decide to use it, find the right programming talent to provide the business success they expect.”
Briton EMS Opts for XJTAG Boundary Scan to Remove Guesswork from Test Equation Briton EMS (www.britonems.co.uk),has selected the XJTAG development system as its boundary scan test solution. The XJTAG system has been implemented at Briton EMS's production facility at Bedford, England, and will enable the manufacturer to rapidly pinpoint faults on complex and expensive printed circuit assemblies featuring high pin count ball grid arrays (BGAs).
“We wanted to remove the guesswork from the test equation and to find a way of rapidly and accurately pinpointing faults on boards that failed their functional test,” said Simon Naylor, manufacturing director at Briton EMS.“These boards typically feature one or several JTAG devices, such as field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), which are inaccessible to probes and oscilloscopes. Using the XJTAG system, we can now isolate a faulty device immediately and rework or reflow the failed component to rectify the problem. This saves us time and increases our yields.”
The powerful and easy-to-use XJTAG boundary scan development system meets the growing market need for a cost-effective solution for testing tightly-packed printed circuit boards populated with JTAG devices such as BGA and chip scale devices, which cannot be tested by traditional methods.
Briton EMS works in partnership with original equipment manufacturers across different markets including: broadcasting, industrial, instrumentation, medical and telecoms. The XJTAG system is used as a stand alone product and complements the company's Ersascope BGA inspection system.
