SYSTEM 8 Advanced Test Module

 

The Advanced Test Module (ATM) is a solution designed for the test and diagnostics of all logic PCB assemblies, from single component testing in-circuit up to complete assembly functional checks.

 

Background

Nowadays, the need for testing and maintaining electronics boards is greater than ever. In a fast paced industry, PCBs and equipment are constanstly evolving and therefore become quickly obsolete. This situation creates a "lagging" effect for a large number of equipment which are fit for purpose but can no longer be serviced by the supplier (or possibly at a high cost), This responsibility now lies with repair companies and a demand for high specification in-circuit test equipment was created.

 

At the same time, manufacturing companies in all sectors of the industry fall under pressure to test all electronics assemblies before they are placed in their final packaging. This is true for global leaders who manufacture all assemblies in house but also for smaller businesses who outsource contract electronics, With the demand of the markets, PCBs need to be functionally checked quickly and efficiently with what is known as an end of line solution or board level tester.

 

Of course, some companies may have requirements for both !

With over 27 years of experience in the test and measurement industry, ABI Electronics is able to respond to these demands by offering the Advanced Test Module.

 

The Advanced Test Module is a solution that offers high test capabilities and comprehensive fault diagnosis with a high degree of flexibility. Powerful test combinations ensure the best fault coverage on PCBs or components and include functional, connections, voltage, thermal and V-I signature tests. A sophisticated but easy to use system with minimum user input required ensures that components and PCBs are tested efficiently and faults are detected rapidly.
