High-End Complex PCB Production Requires Multitechnology System Checks
February 25, 2008 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
As the complexity, density, and cost of printed-circuit boards (PCBs) continues to escalate-particularly related to embedded electronics for medical and other real-time critical systems-so does the cost of reworking defective boards. Most finished electronics are checked with in-circuit testing (ICT) of functional blocks; however, inline inspection systems would locate defects before additional value is added to a defective product, thereby reducing repair and rework costs.Read This Article
