In-circuit Tester Verifies PCBA Quality
May 25, 2005 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
PALO ALTO, Calif. — Agilent Technologies' Medalist i5000 in-circuit tester (ICT) provides test functionality in modular, scalable configurations, allowing operational flexibility for electronic manufacturers looking to verify PCBA quality. The tester is claimed to reduce typical bits-to-production cycle time to five to seven days for a medium-complexity PCBA. The 1:1 ratio of hybrid channel-to-node and tester-per-pin allows for assignment of test resources without regard to resource location, so test fixtures can be built in parallel with test development. The automated test development software and a new, non-multiplexed tester-per-pin architecture speed test and fixture development. Tests are transportable, stable and repeatable without impacting test quality.
