For more than 40 years, ICT (in-circuit test) has been instrumental in identifying process defects on countless varieties of populated PCB (printed-circuit board) assemblies. An in-circuit tester ...
Despite the widespread availability and use of low-power components, today’s printed circuit boards (PCBs) can require a significant amount of current, with boards drawing 50, 100, and even 200 A in ...
Although Low Voltage Directive (LVD) safety testing is perceived as much simpler than EMC or environmental testing, it should not be ignored during CE certification. If a product is unsafe, it can ...
Beeping continuity testers have been around for a long time, but for PCB reverse engineering purposes they leave a lot to be desired. They respond to a “short circuit” of several ohms whereas one ...
