Suggested production tests
Consider the following tests when you design your production test procedures for
devices with the MC57xx and/or MC8xxx installed.
• Visual check of the module’s connectors, RF assemblies, and audio assem-
blies (if applicable)
• Module is operational
• USB connection is functional
• LED is functional
• W_Disable# (module power down)
• Firmware revision check
• Rx tests on main and auxiliary paths
• Tx test
• Audio (microphone and speaker) tests (for voice-enabled modules)
Suggested production test plan procedure
Note: The following is a suggested outline for a relatively comprehensive test plan—you
must decide which tests are appropriate for your product.
This is not an exhaustive list of tests—you may wish to add additional tests that more fully
exercise the capabilities of your product.
You may choose to create and run a test program that automates portions of the test
procedure.
Using an appropriate Dev Kit-based test station (a suggested setup is described
in Suggested testing equipment on page 87), and referring to the appropriate AT
command references:
1. Visually inspect the module’s connectors and RF assemblies for obvious
defects before installing it in the test station.
Note: To power-off the
module, drive W_Disable#
low for the required
minimum period. See State
change: Power off/on on
page 23 for details.
2. Ensure that the module is turned off before beginning your tests—Set
W_Disable# low.
3. If using Linux, determine if any USB devices are currently connected to the
computer:
a. Open a shell window and enter the command
ls /dev/tty/USB*.
b. Record the ttyUSBn values that are returned; these are the currently
connected USB devices. If the command returns “no such file or
directory”, there are no devices currently connected.
4. Te st W_Disable#—Turn on the module by letting W_Disable# float (high
impedance). Depending on your device, this may just require powering up the
device. Refer to the PCI Express Mini Card Dev Kit Quick Start Guide
(Document 2130705) for more details.
