In-Circuit test, or ICT, is the most common method of electrical test for an assembled PCB. It is the most comprehensive and accurate method to ensure that both the PWB and components are working to specification. Not all components however can be el

We have some MLCC capacitors that show some discoloration, or spots. Does anyone know if this will affect reliability? Caps test good - and assemblies function perfectly.

Trying to get a sense of the push-pull going on between designers and manufacturers on the subject of 'one test point per net'. Getting a feeling like the new paradigm is doing all of the electrical tests as functional at EOL and relying almost comp

Depends on what sort of outfit you are working for, and what you are building. A lot of CEMs are doing Flying Probe or ICT on the boards ahead of investing time building into units or adding parts that prevent access to rework. We have a combination

We have been having an ongoing problems with radial electrolytic capacitors (thru hole)for some time. 1. When we wash them in our inline cleaners the sleeving shrinks up from the PCB leaving the 'can' exposed. Some designs have traces on the surf

I just started an analysis concerning broken capacitors (0603 ceramic). My first question concern the standard used to determine the maximum force a capacitor 0603 can support on a pcb. Some capacitors suppliers use the die sheer test of MIL-STD-883

First, you cannot measure capacitors once they are soldered onto the board. Second, why must you measure? Verify your machine set up by using intelligent feeders (if your machine has them) or a checklist, preferably by two people. If you cannot trus

You will have to be more specific about your boards and process to get any help. There are many different types of in circuit tests and functional tests throughout the manufacturing process. The nature of these tests depend on board function. Sinc
