Best Tech will make new PCB test fixture to test the bare PCB, The electrical Test (E-test), which is the final electrical test to verify net continuity and the absence of shorts on the bare printed circuit boards (PCBs). In Best Tech <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestpcbs.com\/manufacturing\/pcb-manufacturing.htm\">PCB factory<\/a>, we perform 100% electrical testing on all bare PCBs its facilities as per IPC-6012 class 2 standard.

Normally we create a reference netlist file from the customer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s original Gerber files during PCB fabrication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We always prefer to receive the CAD file based on the netlist for comparison. Since a CAD based netlist is generated before PCB routing, it provides another layer of checking (against the Gerber files). This allows us to catch any PCB faults introducing in the event of an error in the Gerber files. For full turnkey PCB assembly (PCBA service) projects, this helps to ensure that the PCB boards are 100% correct before any components are populated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>tester 2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestpcbs.com\/blogimages\/2021\/07\/11\/tester2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestpcbs.com\/blogimages\/2021\/07\/11\/tester2-s.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><figcaption>tester2<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are Best Tech E-tester Capabilities<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Minimum Continuity Resistance<\/td><td>0.1 Ohms<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Maximum Test Voltage<\/td><td>1000 Volts<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Max Isolated Resistance<\/td><td>25 M Ohm \u00e2\u20ac\u201c 2 G Ohm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Electrical Test Pitch (Fixture)<\/td><td>20mil(0.5mm)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Electrical Test Pitch (Flying Probe)<\/td><td>4mil<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Debug \/check for missing pins: (Test fixture)<\/td><td>10 minutes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Test time per board:<\/td><td>40 seconds<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Setup time:<\/td><td>30 minutes<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>All points are tested simultaneously. However, this process involves set-up to create the fixture itself and additional costs associated with the cost of materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The electrical test fixture has a limited shelf life and repeat using times. For every PCB it will need a fixture and its custom-made for a customer only. Many other factories only store 2 years shelf life for electrical test fixtures, but Best Tech will store at least 3 years for customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to ensure the quality of fixtures and spare enough space to store fixtures, Best Tech leaves one floor to keep the fixture.
