This is correct. We don't know if you are looking across the components or referencing a point they are not even connected to.

Hi all Wonder if anyone can help , I'm trying to test a pcb board ( with very little experience) I've tested the resistors and now the capacitors , only to find that about 5 of them have continuity so guessing there not working . I checked the s

Unless you have a firm grasp on the circuit and electronics in general, you are on a hiding to nothing. Testing components in circuit is complex, because its a circuit and any measurement you make is affected by connected neighboring ones. If you set

Hi, Has anyone got any experience with Lead Check or any other type of swab system for checking the presence of lead on a component or assembly? http://www.leadcheck.com/CircuitBoard.shtml Cheers, Rob.

We are performing testing for lead free connector finishes. We want to run solderability tests on a series of lead free connector plating options in a series lead free PCB's. I need some advice on the most popular lead free PCB finishes. I am aware

Hi has anyone noticed any issues with reduced component lead diameters on through hole resistors? All the volume manufacturers have or are in the process of reducing the lead diameters from 0.6mm to 0.4mm due to the huge increase in copper prices o

This is indeed yet another proof that under impulse of the RoHS directives all norms are flushed down the drain. Bean counters are slowly but surely taking over our industry because they no longer face resistance by form of standards. Even the basic

Hi Pat, Not going to change, but has changed. We were first notified about a potential change 2 years ago, but as we're such a volume user we could turn around and say no thanks. However as every one else has now changed over on commodity parts &

I have been using ICT for a number of years. It is still a viable resource for catching defects in the production process. AOI doesn't catch everything, such as bridging on QFN or J-lead devices (this will depend on the type of AOI and camera syste

Reese, We would agree about the value of an ICT system, in a general manufacturing environment. However, a couple of notes apply: 1. ICT isn't a catch-all, either, and should be used to verify the process, not validate it. Quality should be buil
