Fluence Technology Inc.
Fluence, formerly known as Test Systems Strategies Inc. (TSSI) pioneered the development of commercial digital test development tools. Since its beginnings in 1978, TSSI has become the standard-bearer for design-to-test translation tools operating independently of the EDA or Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) vendor. Since then, we have acquired or developed strategic alliances with companies to provide digital and analog fault analysis, automated test generation and built-in-self-test (BIST) capabilities. Fluence is the sole provider of an integrated suite of DTA solutions, which improve the quality and lower the costs of electronic products developed by leading telecommunications, computer, consumer electronics and automotive companies. Our Beaverton, Oregon headquarters house design, manufacturing, sales, marketing and customer support while additional design is done in California and Europe.
Fluence products offer significant advantages over conventional industry practices for reducing project schedules, improving yields and providing a more cost-effective method to test complex devices requiring lengthy test development and expensive ATE time. Our product lines, consisting of Digital Design and Test Automation (DDTA), Analog Design and Test Automation (ADTA) and SOC BIST, are the first to offer a comprehensive integrated approach for verifying correct operation of all digital and/or mixed-signal devices.
Our DDTA product line offers unprecedented support for test vector cyclization, test fault analysis and ATE interfacing. The ADTA product line delivers high-quality design optimization and centering and analog fault detection. The SOC BIST product line is a family of Test Intellectual Property (TIP) used in high-speed digital, analog and mixed-signal cores and circuits.
