Abstract :
Three basic methods of detecting intermittent shorts in components have been discussed. Each one has limitations, but if properly used, alone or in combination with one of the others, can greatly reduce problems due to shorts caused by particles. Additional work in this area is required to provide a completely reliable method of exciting very small particles and to improve effectivities, particularly on aluminum and silicon particles.
