[39th NePCON Japan Domestic Debut] Supports inspection of high-density printed circuit boards with industry-leading accuracy! New model of flying probe tester.

Takaya Corporation announces the new model of its flying probe tester, "APT-2400F/APT-2600FD series," which reliably detects various defects in printed circuit boards through ultra-fast inspection. Equipped with cutting-edge inspection technology that can check fine component placements and connections with high precision, it ensures that even minor defects and risks are not overlooked, strongly supporting product quality improvement. Additionally, thanks to our unique control mechanisms and sensing technology, reliable inspections can be achieved even in fluctuating environments, contributing to quality management by reducing recall risks. Furthermore, the user-friendly interface allows anyone to operate it intuitively, helping to alleviate burdens in workplaces where labor shortages are becoming serious, while still ensuring high inspection accuracy and contributing to increased productivity. *For more details, please download the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

We will create new value through the mutual complementarity of ICT and BST.

In-circuit testing with flying probe testers excels at inspecting the electrical characteristics of implemented electronic components in analog circuits. However, components that cannot be probed make electrical testing difficult, and functional testing of digital circuits is challenging. On the other hand, boundary scan testing allows for quick interconnection testing between LSI pins and on-board programming for FPGAs, but it can only test digital circuits around ICs that comply with the boundary scan standard, and it also requires dedicated fixtures for connections. At Takaya Corporation, we possess technology that uses flying probes instead of fixtures that connect 4 to 5 scan-compatible pins and measuring instruments required for boundary scan testing. This allows for boundary scan testing even when the counterpart of a boundary scan-compliant IC is a non-boundary scan-compliant IC or passive components (such as connectors), by enabling the flying probe to function as a virtual boundary scan cell. With a single flying probe tester, it is possible to conduct comprehensive testing of both digital and analog circuits, thereby significantly enhancing testing efficiency compared to before.

Featured Content ■ Latest Trends in BGA Implementation Board Inspection Hybrid Inspection of Flying Probe Testers and JTAG Testing Andor System Support Co., Ltd. / Masazumi Taniguchi Takaya Co., Ltd. / Kohei Yanagida Overview BGA (Ball Grid Array) components have become widely used in various electronic devices, ranging from consumer products to industrial equipment, and more recently, automotive devices. However, a reliable method for inspecting boards with BGA components (hereafter referred to as BGA implementation boards) has not been established. This is because every inspection method has its advantages and disadvantages, and it is impossible to conduct a complete test using only one inspection method. Therefore, inspecting BGA implementation boards has become a challenge for many companies. In this article, we will introduce the latest technological trends in hybrid inspection that combines flying probe testers and JTAG (Joint Test Action Group) boundary scan as one solution to this issue. 1. Introduction 2. Inspection and Challenges of BGA Implementation Boards 3. Possibilities of Electrical Testing 4. In-Circuit Testing 5. JTAG Boundary Scan Testing 6. Hybrid Testing 7. Conclusion
