In-circuit test can exercise components individually. Boundary-scan test can evaluate components as well as interconnects. Functional test can test for faults that may have escaped other stages while ...

The systems have increased test throughput by up to 75% over the original testers. Also, result reporting is easier thanks to a compact database that stores all test data. Lifeline Systems provides ...

The limited access afforded to circuit nodes by PCBs densely populated with tiny components seriously challenges traditional PCB test strategies. But while optical and x-ray inspection can help fill ...

For testing PCBs, test engineers have a variety of options ranging from venerable in-circuit testers and flying probers to functional testers and the latest in embedded-instrument technology.

The unit is an integrated package of high specification instrumentation controlled by sophisticated but easy to use software. The hardware is installed in a transportable case that also contains a ...

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN – Mycronic’s Global Technologies division has acquired ETZ, a Germany-based manufacturer of test probes used in electrical testing of bare printed circuit boards.

Ever wondered why your Arduino wasn’t programming, only to find out that the cable doesn’t have any data conductors? Worry not, [Spencer Maroukis] has got you covered with the USB Sleuth Cable Tester!

PCB manufacturers are being offered a technique for flash/HIPOT (2kV) testing of unpopulated boards. Clare has developed a system using its HAL104 instrument connected to a test enclosure for flash ...

Designing circuit boards for high speed applications requires special considerations. This you already know, but what exactly do you need to do differently from common board layout? Building on where ...
