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 ...

Test engineers struggle to find the optimum balance between printed-circuit-board (PCB) cost and test coverage. Low coverage leads to excessive field returns, warranty replacements, and even lawsuits.

[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 develop… ...
