OPTICAL TUNING TEST SYSTEM USING PARALLEL OVEN PIPELINES WITH PARALLEL INSTRUMENT CHANNELS AND MACHINE LEARNING ASSISTANCE

A test system includes a test and measurement instrument, ovens to hold devices under test (DUT), each oven having an oven switch selectably connected to the DUTs, channel switches selectably connected to the oven switches and to one channel of the instrument, one or more processors to: select an oven and its oven switch, connect that oven switch to a subset of DUTs in that oven, connect the channel switches to that oven switch to receive signals from the subset of DUTs, send the signals to channels of the instrument to acquire waveforms from the subset of DUTs in parallel, and repeat connecting of the channel switches and that oven switch until the instrument has acquired waveforms from each DUT in that oven, use machine learning to tune each DUT, test whether each DUT in that oven is optimally tuned, and repeat until all DUTs have been tuned and tested.
