 0-9 degree contacting

The test heads of our flying prober are attached to planar rotors and move on a testing axis – the so-called Z-axis. Software control allows the heads to meet the test point at a 0 or 9 degree angle.

If you approach a component at a 9° angle, this guarantees perfect contact and permits testing as close as possible to the component. With the 0°-setting you can ideally check test points between tall components or arched modules – thereby further increasing your test coverage.

Barcode scanner

The barcode scanner located directly on the test head is controlled by the test program and assigns the test result to the correct test object.

Soft landing function

Circuit boards are getting ever smaller and more complex, especially in high-tech communication areas such as automotive, medicine and the military. This means the test points are also getting smaller and more sensitive to scratches from the test pins. These are the reasons we developed the “soft landing” technology for our Condor flying prober.

The principle is simple: the head travels at normal speed towards the test component, but brakes 1-2 mm before arrival. The pin then arrives gently, precisely and at reduced speed at the test point, without scratching the board and hardly leaving a “footprint” behind.

With our soft landing function you can not only increase test coverage and testing accuracy, but also protect the board from scratches.

 Boundary Scan FPT

With the boundary scan upgrade to our Flying Probe the needles can act as virtual JTAT/Boundary Scan cells. This increases fault coverage, since now the conductor paths that otherwise could not be reached can also be tested.

CAN-/LIN-Modules

The CAN-/LIN modules are standard interfaces for communication with the test object.

Programmer Modules

With the Programmer Modules you can make specific selections for onboard flash programming. Here we integrate for example programmers from Ertec, SMH, ProMik or Algocraft.

IEEE-, RS232-, USB-Modules

These functional modules have standardized PC interfaces for communicating with additional function test modules.

·        Variant frontloader:
The interface consists of plug connectors (64-pin) – fixtures can be connected to them via cables.

·        Variant In-line:
The interface consists of plug connectors (64-pin) – fixtures can be connected directly to them.

Multi-Level Fixture (incl. Condor Fixture Lifting Mechanism)
Two-stage device for the Condor Flying Prober with a lifting mechanism allowing the user to contact the same device in different ways.

Flying Probe PCB Carriers

Customized PCB Carriers 
Are you confronted with the challenge of not having to test inline-capable PCBs? Do your boards fall below the clamping edge of three millimeters? Digitaltest solves the problem and manufactures individually for you suitable PCB carriers, so-called trays. If the circuit boards are tested on one side in our frontloader, a clamping edge on two parallel sides as well as space for the variably adjustable clamping fingers on the other side of the board is sufficient. If these requirements are not met, our trays are a quick and easy solution.

Universal PCB Carrier
With this quickly deployable board handling system, your PCBs can be easily tested with our flying probe in front load as well as in in-line operation. Digitaltest has been using trays in its own production for a long time and has already manufactured such PCB carriers for many different types of electronic ass
