What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

In-circuit testers are automatic test equipment used to verify assembled printed circuit boards. In-circuit testing checks for manufacturing defects by making electrical contact with test points across the board. A combinational tester integrates in-circuit structural testing with functional testing of the board's operation.

How it works

The Spectrum 8862 is a combinational system on which functional testing and in-circuit testing are combined on a single system.^[1]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

In-circuit and combinational testers are used in the electronics manufacturing flow after printed circuit board assembly. The tester typically handles the assembled board after soldering and before final integration into a larger product. Combinational testers may serve in production test lines where a single system must cover both process verification and board-level function.
