Test engineers have a variety of options for testing printed-circuit boards—ranging from in-circuit testers to the latest in embedded-instrument technology. Despite the decline of PCB physical access ...

What methods can be applied to verify PCB functionality and safety? Which are suitable for mass production and for prototypes? What parameters are checked in each test? How to check a PCB without ...

Test engineers struggle to find the optimum balance between printed-circuit-board (PCB) cost and test coverage. Low coverage leads to excessive field returns, warranty replacements, and even lawsuits.

BGA soldering is very reliable if done using the correct procedure, so we introduce GA Soldering on PCB board, BGA Inspection and BGA Rework. According to different packaging materials, BGA components ...

Let’s face it friends, everything is moving toward surface mount components. We’ve seen quite a few features here that cover using stencils to populate boards and using ovens to reflow. [Oleg] has put ...
