This unit
The BP Microsystems ASM160QC is an automated socket module engineered for high-volume programming of 160-pin Quad Flat Package (QFP) integrated circuits. Operating with QFP devices measuring 28mm × 28mm at 0.65mm pitch, this module delivers precision alignment and contact integrity within automated programming systems. The ASM160QC integrates signal and ground planes with controlled impedance architecture to minimize noise and ground bounce, ensuring reliable vector testing and accurate device programming across production environments.

BP Microsystems ASM160QC — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the BP Microsystems ASM160QC. Calibration covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common BP Microsystems ASM160QC faults: power supply failure (cRIO-9073/9074), C-series slot connector wear, PXI chassis fan failure, GPIB interface failure on VXI controllers, BIOS/EEPROM corruption. NI CompactRIO most common faults are power supply failure on older cRIO-9073/9074 chassis and C-series module slot connector wear from repeated hot-swap cycles. PXI chassis fan failure is the most common wear item — chassis fans are field-replaceable. VXI embedded controllers most commonly develop EEPROM corruption and GPIB interface failure.
