The importance of properly integrating test points into a PCB design. Test-point deployment considerations. When it comes to creating a modern electronic design, we live in both the best and the worst ...

Modern printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) are designed to support increasingly complex applications in industries such as telecommunications, automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial ...

PCBs must survive impact, flexing and thermal cycles so how can mechanical testing be used to test for vulnerabilities?

Production test of a finished electronic product often involves two techniques: in-circuit test (ICT) and functional component test (FCT). The ICT technique examines a non-powered circuit board to ...

There are many misunderstandings regarding how the type of manufacturing technology used in the assembly of printed circuit boards (PCBs) relates to automated test. To dispel some of the confusion, it ...

Teradyne announces Omnyx, a test platform for printed circuit board assemblies engineered to meet the requirements of AI and ...

Testing for failure with a multimeter is only partially effective, whereas a dedicated optocoupler testing circuit provides ...

No matter what brand or board type you’re working with, it’s impossible to escape the reality that PCBs are inherently failure-prone. Planning for when, rather than if, your circuit boards will ...
