To All Technetters, I am extremely grateful to the response to some of my queries. This forum has been an extremely valuable source of information. Many Thanks to all! Now I have another question: What is the industry doing or going towards in terms of different testing methodolgies for fine pitch boards with minimal real estate? We literally have no real estate for the traditional test point/ICT approach. I'm sure others of you out there are dealing with this same situation. How is this being dealt to where test accessibility to 100% of the board is not compromised but there isn't a test point for every node available? Any ideas or responses would be appreciated David *************************************************************************** * TechNet mail list is provided as a service by IPC using SmartList v3.05 * *************************************************************************** * To subscribe/unsubscribe send a message <to: [log in to unmask]> * * with <subject: subscribe/unsubscribe> and no text in the body. * *************************************************************************** * If you are having a problem with the IPC TechNet forum please contact * * Dmitriy Sklyar at 847-509-9700 ext. 311 or email at [log in to unmask] * ***************************************************************************
