Aimed at engineering benches where the use of conventional fixtures can be too costly, PCB test-fixture kits from Merifix enable engineers to replace unreliable, makeshift lash-ups with proper ...

In the first two articles of SI/PI MasterClass, I showed how you can create simple fixtures to characterize small discrete components. In “Solder-wick trick characterizes bypass caps” [1], you can ...

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 ...

Test and programming fixtures are great time-savers for anyone who needs to deal with more than a handful of PCBs. Instead of plugging in connectors (or awkwardly holding probe tips or wires) to ...

This article summarizes the content of a paper jointly developed and presented by Advantest and Infineon at TestConX 2022. Device under test (DUT) fixtures for ATE systems pose several verification ...

Wireless fixtures for in-circuit testing (ICT) have been available for more than 15 years and have no equal in testing high node-count complex circuit boards. However, there are other hidden ...

Folks from [Adafruit] are showing off a neat hack – USB host on RP2040, using the now-famous PIO peripheral. [Adafruit] builds a lot of RP2040 boards, and naturally, you gotta test them before you ...
