Abstract :
Reliable pin-level diagnosis of open solder joints allows manufacturers to tune SMT process for maximum output. Repair time and repair-induced damage are both significantly reduced with pin-level diagnostics. Detection of misoriented capacitors prevents expensive and reputation-damaging field failures. Ability to test both sides of PCBs allows maximum fault coverage
