Increasing test coverage without affecting cycle time

Electronics evolutions and revolutions - whether in component technology or in the products in which they are used - continue across the globe. While the world awaits the next electronic must-have marvel like the PC or the cell phone, the evolution and continual re-engineering of existing consumer, commercial and aerospace products is as fast-paced as ever.

Electronics manufacturers continue their quest for products that provide greater functionality and consume less power, typically in packaging that gets smaller and smaller.

As a result of this continual evolution, new technologies and trends in the production of printed circuit boards are required, presenting new challenges for how PCBs are built and tested.
