Good day TechNet
We have a customer asking us to look at implement flying probe testing
on their products. We currently do AOI on all, and x-ray and functional
test on some of their products, we do not have a flying probe machine.
I've got some notions of the benefits and drawbacks of these machines
but as I have no first hand experience I figure I should ask here for
opinions.
Assume an entry level machine for the sake of discussion, and without
significant add-ons. Top side probes only, probably 4 probes.
Assume a double sided board with 500 components, only passives on the
bottom side, and fair accessibility.
My questions:
- Claims are that the current crop of machines can be programmed in "a
few hours", is this realistic?
- Do I need anything from the designer on top of the usual gerber and
BOM (e.g. a netlist, or other format of data?)
- What kind of run time am I looking at? I understand with a single
side machine I will have to run the board twice to get the best coverage
possible.
Thanks! Any opinions are appreciated.
