Scan test apparatus for continuity testing of bare printed circuit boards

摘要

A scan test apparatus for continuity testing of bare printed circuit boards having a first shorting layer and a second shorting layer positioned adjacent a unit under test to electrically short the circuit on the unit under test. At least one of the first or second shorting layers includes a row of wipers for generating test signals as the wiper contacts test sites on the unit under test as the unit under test is moved across the wiper. Measurement electronics are electrically connected to the wiper for receipt of the test signals for comparison to stored data and elimination from further testing if the test signals and stored data match.
