Electrical and Electronic Performance Testing
category
Electrical and electronic performance testing characterises the conductivity, resistivity, dielectric properties, capacitance, and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of conductive, semiconductive, and electronically functional textiles using four-probe resistance, impedance spectroscopy, and transmission line methods across relevant frequency and environmental condition ranges.
Role
Enables specification and quality control of e-textiles, conductive yarns, sensor fabrics, heating elements, and shielding textiles by providing quantitative electrical performance data linking material composition and fabric structure to functional electronic performance under realistic temperature, humidity, and mechanical deformation conditions.
