Learn about key strategies for testing a PCB design at the system and component level, including the effective deployment of test points.

A printed circuit board turns separate parts into a stable system that powers up, talks to peripherals, and survives real ...

[Jack Gassett] is developing a new breakout board for an FPGA. The chip comes in a ball grid array (BGA) package which is notoriously difficult to solder reliably. Since he’s still in development, the ...

Reverse leakage testing Reverse leakage may be measured only after removing the component from the circuit board because shunt resistances abound in almost all circuits. Good silicon rectifiers and ...

Large electronics manufacturers are continuously looking to improve efficiencies and optimise the use of available resources. One of the biggest challenges they face is being able to track any printed ...
