We can help you during any stage of your process!
PROTOTYPING
First stage of the PCB, proof of concept. Focused on functionality and demonstrable product. Board bring up and debug straight off the assembly line.
Shorts and open test on voltage rails
Basic confirmation of functionality & 'Board Bring Up'
Basic power test supplies for stability and spec
Measure clocks & oscillators
If firmware available, program devices
Start test jig spec during this phase
REV A
Fix the first issues identified in Prototyping stage. Additional features check. Expand areas of test.
Program devices
Unblock functionality test
AC and DC measurement
Jitter & accuracy
Run diagnostics if available
Basic environmental tests
Jig development starts during
this phase
REV B
Expanded test procedures to include reliability testing at temperatures to accelerate life time testing Pilot Functional Testing.
Program devices
Unblock functionality test with some boards
AC and DC measurement with some boards
Jitter &accuracy with some boards
Run diagnostics with some boards
Test jig development occurs during this phase
RAMP
Once production has been approved product starts to ramp up Test jig is fully developed and ready for volume production.
Program devices
Perform pass/fail testing
Run diagnostics on jig with some boards
Deploy test jig
Deploy Functional Test
HIGH VOLUME
Failure analysis is an ongoing process throughout which ensures continuous improvements and yield.
Start using test jig
Run diagnostics jig randomly pull and test some boards
