Consumer electronics testing & certification
Empowering the ultimate
user experience
From smartphones and wearables to smart home devices, we support testing across audio performance, battery life, and complex communication interfaces.
Pain points & challenges
Keep pace with consumer
electronics development
Consumer electronics teams face intense competition and short product life cycles. Meeting audio certification requirements, validating interface compliance, and optimizing battery life within compressed development schedules are critical to bringing competitive products to market.
Rapid product iteration
Test lines may need to be ready within weeks, putting pressure on conventional equipment procurement timelines.
Demanding compliance requirements
Emerging technologies such as USB4 and Wi-Fi 7 create ongoing demand for high-performance test and analysis equipment.
Complex acoustic test environments
True wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds and smart vehicle cabins place demanding requirements on audio test bandwidth and background noise, making validation more challenging.
Fluctuating production demand
Flexible equipment allocation helps address test-station shortages during project peaks while limiting the cost of idle capacity.

01.
Validating active noise cancellation in TWS earbuds
An acoustic module manufacturer needed to analyze noise-cancellation curves across multiple scenarios for a new flagship TWS earbud design.
In the reported customer case, a high-resolution audio analyzer and an acoustically isolated test environment helped the team refine its ANC algorithm. The customer reported noise reduction of 45 dB.
