Taipei, Taiwan and Boeblingen, Germany – October 9nd, 2025
iPasslabs Technology Co. Ltd. and BitifEye Digital Test Solutions GmbH have announced a strategic partnership to expand the global availability of authorized test services for high-speed digital interfaces. To meet the growing demands of AI and Smart Vehicle ecosystems worldwide, the collaboration focuses initially on PCI Express and MIPI A-PHY, with future extensions planned for USB®, IEEE/OIF, and other emerging standards.
By combining the members’ complementary expertise in test system development, automation and service delivery, the partnership offers certified testing through the companies’ global network. BitifEye, based in Germany, and iPasslabs, headquartered in Taiwan, will jointly pursue international business development and the provision of Authorized Test Laboratory (ATL) services.
“In response to the global trends in Artificial Intelligent technology, we are honored to announce this collaboration, which will overcome regional barriers and create a win-win for both parties.
Through our partnership with BitifEye, we can now reach and provide PCIe testing services to a wider range of European customers. Also, by leveraging BitifEye’s professional expertise and strengths, we can make iPasslabs’ testing services more comprehensive to enhance the value of our company”, said Eric Shen, Co-founder and CEO of iPasslabs.
This partnership creates a strong foundation for scaling compliance test capacity to overcome previous limitations, while maintaining the highest technical standards. Customers will benefit from faster time-to-compliance, better regional accessibility – including, for the first time, in Europe – and trusted services aligned with PCI-SIG® and MIPI Alliance programs.
“This partnership with iPasslabs enables us to better serve our customers globally. The new joint test lab in Böblingen, Germany, operated by BitifEye iPasslabs Test Services Europe GmbH, and combined with iPasslabs’ Asia Pacific locations, allows us to deliver high quality testing solutions and expertise to PCI Express and MIPI A-PHY adopters around the world”, said Alexander Schmitt, CEO and co-founder of BitifEye.”
Next steps include the coordination of joint services for PCIe 4.0 and 5.0 compliance testing as well as a MIPI A-PHY Compliance Program Test Event which will be held at iPasslabs in Taipei, Taiwan, from December 8 to 12, 2025. Further service expansion is anticipated in 2026.
