and competitiveness of companies.
What Is It
The last thing any designer wants is to discover last-minute that their product is
faulty. Electronics of all types, even if they’re properly designed and meticulously
built, are prone to problems. Many electronics come out of the prototype stage with
plenty of bugs and issues for their designers to troubleshoot. However, when
something is left unnoticed until the product is out in the field, it can mean huge
problems for the company.
PCB testing and inspection cover a wide variety of printed circuit board testing
methods that check if a PCB meets standards. Some of these PCB standards revolve
around ensuring the PCB functions properly according to a project’s specifications
and that it doesn’t have any defects. Electric board testers and other circuit board
testing methods are used to conduct these inspections and PCB tests.
Circuit board testing procedures evaluate several components of PCBs. These
components are analyzed in detail to ensure their quality. The primary components
tested can be found below:
● Lamination: Lamination quality is essential to the lifespan of a PCB — peeling
laminate can cause issues in the final functionality of a board. Generally, tests
on lamination will look at the laminate’s resistance to peeling by force or
application of heat.
● Copper plating: The copper foil on a PCB is laminated to the board to provide
conductivity, but the quality of the copper is often tested, with tensile strength
and elongation analyzed in detail.
● Solderability: Testing the solderability of a material is essential for a
functioning PCB since it ensures that components can be attached firmly to
the board and prevents soldering defects in the final product. The most
commonly analyzed factor is wetting, which refers to how well a surface
accepts liquid solder.
● Hole wall quality: Hole wall quality is another essential part of a PCB,
ensuring that the hole walls will not crack or delaminate when the PCB goes
into the field. Hole walls are generally analyzed in environments with cycling
and quickly changing temperatures to see how well they react to thermal
stress.

● Electrical: Electrical conductivity is essential for any PCB, so the ability of a
PCB to pass electric currents with minimal leakage is a common test.
● Environment: Many PCBs operate in humid environments, so a common test
for PCBs is for water absorption. In these types of tests, the PCB is weighed
before and after being put in a humid environment, and any significant weight
change results in a failing grade.
● Cleanliness: Cleanliness for PCBs is the ability to resist environmental factors
like corrosion and humidity. Generally, these tests include analyzing PCBs
before and after they’re put through varying environmental conditions.
Most of these factors are analyzed in early materials testing and environmental tests.
However, factors like electrical conductivity and general functionality are analyzed
with various methods and equipment.
1. In-Circuit Testing.
In-circuit testing (ICT) is the most robust type of PCB testing in existence. This
test involves using fixed probes laid out in a way that matches the design of
the PCB. The probes check the integrity of the solder connection.
2. Flying Probe Testing
Flying probe testing is a tried-and-true option that’s less expensive than in-
circuit testing. It’s a non-powered type of test that checks for:
● Opens
● Shorts
● Resistance
● Capacitance
● Inductance
● Diode issues
3. Automated Optical Inspection (AOI)
AOI-uses either a single 2D camera or two 3D cameras to take photos of the
PCB. The program then compares the photos of your board to a detailed
schematic. If there is a board that does not match the schematic to a certain
degree, the board is flagged for inspection by a technician
4. Burn-In Testing
As the name suggests, burn-in testing is a more intense type of testing for
PCBs. It’s designed to detect early failures and establish load capacity.
Because of its intensity, burn-in testing can be destructive to the parts being
tested.
5. X-RAY Inspection
Also referred to as AXI, this type of “testing” is really more of an inspection
tool, at least for most ECMs.
During this test, an X-ray technician is able to locate defects early during the
manufacturing process by viewing:
● Solder connections
● Internal traces
● Barrels
X-ray testing can check elements that are usually hidden from view, such
as connections and ball grid array packages with solder joints underneath the
chip package. While this check can be very useful, it does require trained,
experienced operators.

6. Functional Testing
A PCB functional test verifies a PCB’s behavior in the product’s end-use
environment. The requirements of a functional test, its development, and
procedures can vary greatly by PCB and end product.
PCB contamination testing: Detects bulk Ionics that can contaminate your board,
causing corrosion and other issues.
Solder float test: Determines the level of thermal stress a PCB's holes can resist
Resistivity of Solvent Extract (ROSE) Testing – highly reliable test used to ensure
that your board does not contain significant surface debris remaining from
manufacturing processes or excess conductive material.
The 5S system is a lean manufacturing tool that improves workplace efficiency and
eliminates waste. There are five steps in the system, each starting with the letter S:
6
By providing a systematic framework for organization and cleanliness, 5S helps
facilities avoid lost productivity from delayed work or unplanned downtime.
The Steps of 5S
5S was created in Japan, and the original “S” terms were in Japanese, so English
translations for each of the five steps may vary. The basic ideas and the connections
between them are easy to understand, though.
Step 1: Sort
The first step in the 5S process is Sort, or “seiri,” which translates to “tidiness.” The
goal of the Sort step is to eliminate clutter and clear up space by removing things
that don’t belong in the area.

What I Have Learned
Step 3: Shine
Routing Cleaning
Step 4: Standardize
The power of writing down
The first three steps of 5S cover the basics of clearing, organizing, and
cleaning a workspace; on their own, those steps will provide short-term
benefits. The fourth step is Standardize, or “seiketsu,” which simply
means standardization. By writing down what is being done, where, and
8
by whom, you can incorporate the
new practices into normal work
procedure. This paves the way for
long-term change.
Step 5: Sustain
The fifth step of a 5S program is
Sustain, or “shitsuke,” which
literally means “discipline.” The idea
here is continuing commitment. It’s
important to follow through on the
decisions that you’ve made — and
continually return to the earlier
steps of 5S, in an ongoing cycle.
Sustaining a 5S program can mean different things in different
workplaces, but there are some elements that are common in successful
programs.

with a periodic audit can provide important
information and guidance. Where is 5S working well?
Where are teams falling behind?
Benefits of a 5S Program
10
Reduced equipment downtime – When tools
and equipment are kept clean, routinely
inspected, and used in a standardized way,
preventative maintenance is much easier, and
major failures can often be prevented entirely.
11
way of accomplishing every task. Safety practices should be learned early
and always adhered to when working with any electrical and electronic
device. This is for your protection as well as of the people working with
you, and also for the devices that you are using. The basis for this process
begins with Occupational Health and Safety Policies.

2. Balance - Additional force is required to use an unbalanced tool. The
tool's center of gravity should be close to the body, close to the handles,
and in line with the center of the hand holding the tool.
3. Torque Control - High torque requires a lot of force to keep the tool
from rotating out of your hand. Torque settings should be set to the
minimum required by job specifications, especially for in-line and pistol-
shaped tools.
4. Grip - Tool handles should allow stable and efficient grip. The handle
should be cylindrical or oval in shape, with a diameter of between 1.25
and 1.75 inches. Tool handles should contact as much of the hand and
fingers as possible. Grips should be made of nonslip compressible and
nonconductive material. Avoid form-fitting handles (handles with finger
grooves), since they may not fit the hand size of every user. Handles
should be kept clean and free from slippery grease, oil, or sweat.
5. Span - On two-handled manual tools, like pliers, the open span should
be about 4 inches and the closed span should only be about 1.5 inches.
13
6. Spring-loaded handles - A spring-loaded mechanism saves muscular
effort and reduces mechanical stress on the backs and sides of fingers for
such tools as scissors, pliers, and other manual cutting and gripping tools
which have to be opened and closed repeatedly during use
7. Choose the right tool shape - Pistol-shaped tools should be used on a
vertical surface or on a horizontal surface below waist height. Bend the
tool, not the wrist.
8. Avoid bending over your work.
9. Avoid overhead work if possible. Use a ladder to reduce the need for
outstretched arms.
14
10. Keep the elbows close to the body.
12. Stand with weight evenly distributed on both feet. When standing for
long periods of time, rest one foot on a sturdy object above floor height
and switch legs periodically.
13. Sit up straight so the chair offers good back support. Adjust the chair
back so it comfortably supports the natural curve of the lower back.
Adjust the seat height to allow thighs to be parallel to the floor
15
● Assess the Risk- It means working out how likely it is that a
hazard will harm someone and how serious the harm could be.
● Make the Changes- For example, you can pick things from the
floor and put them away to eliminate a trip hazard.
Common Hazards
● A hazard is a situation in the workplace that has the potential to
harm the health and safety of people or to damage plants and
equipment. with pics
Physical Hazards
● One of the most common physical hazards. with pics
Mechanical Hazards
● When working on electronic equipment, always be alert.
Chemical Hazards
● Always read the warnings and instructions on the label.
Electric Shock Hazard
● Inside computers and electronic equipment, there is a range of
voltages from3.3 volts to 25 volts, most of which are harmless.
Safety Guidelines
● Protect people from injury
● protect equipment from damage
● Protect the environment from contamination
Fire Safety Guidelines
● Know the location of fire extinguishers, how to use them and
which to use for electrical fires and for combustible fires.
● Find an escape route in case the fire gets out of control.
● Know how to contact emergency services quickly.
● Keep the workspace clean.
● Keep most solvents in a separate area.
16
hazard and risk assessment of a job, process and activity must be done
first before deciding which type of PPE to be used.

7. Foot slippery floors, wet safety shoes, safety
floors, sharp objects, boot leggings
falling objects,
chemical splashes and
liquid metals
aberration
● Wear clothes that are tight, plain, and well-built and keep them
buttoned up. – Loose sleeves, unbuttoned or torn shirts or
sweaters, ties or loose belts can easily be caught in revolving
machinery.
● Wear cuff less trousers. - Trouser cuffs may cause you to trip or
they may catch sparks or harmful substances.
● Wear suitable footwear and keep it in good repair
● Wear safety shoes or boots with insulated sole for electrical work.
- Safety shoes and boots will reinforce toe caps to protect against
heavy falling objects.
● Keep long hair under a tightfitting cap or net. If your hair is long,
it can be easily caught by the machine.
● Do not wear accessories such as rings or wrist watches, earrings,
neck chains, pendants and bracelets while on the job. - Such
items can be caught by moving machinery. It is extremely
dangerous to wear them in certain types of work. You may lose
your fingers
● Wear personal protective equipment suitable for the kind of work
to be done. – Learn the purpose of each item from the wide range
of protective devices available.

How is Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Generated?
ESD wrist straps ESD wrist straps are also called conductive wrist
straps or bands. They are usually made of elastic cloth but contain
conductive strands that touch your skin and discharge any static
electricity on your body. Some straps are made of conductive rubber. The
wire attached to the strap contains a large value resistor, usually one
mega ohm (1,000,000 ohms). It allows any charge on your body to be
slowly transferred to a washing machine ground point.
3. Put the adjustable strap around your wrist. If you are wearing an ESD
wrist strap connected to a frame or ground, it drains static charges of
your body, thus, it prevents damaging ESD sensitive devices.
4. Attach the clip at the end of the wire to an electrical ground connection
or metal framework of the appliance.
