Next-gen, automated circuit board diagnostics and probing system
ATS-AutoPoint Desktop (APDT)
Description
The AutoPoint DT system is a benchtop flying probe system, sometimes called a roving probe, used for automatic probing of an electronic PCB or CCA. Tasks that were previously accomplished with time-consuming manual methods can now be automated.
The AutoPoint DT provides affordable automated testing of PCBs including complex, densely packed surface mount and through-hole boards. The precision robotic movement lets you probe points on latest technology ICs, such as PLCC, SOIC, PGA, SSOP, TSOP, QFP and others, without the need for expensive test fixturing or test programming.
KEY BENEFITS
- Automatic diagnostics and probing
- Supports power-off and power-on test techniques
- Expandable to 2 (two) probes
- No knowledge of board required – usable on all circuits
- Error-free probing for accurate and fast diagnostics
- Powerful and intuitive TestVue software for ease-of-use
- Standalone or Integrated implementation for scaleable levels of test
- Desktop or integrated cabinet for maximum space utility
- Rapid introduction for fast returns on investment
