ATE TEST PROGRAM CAPABILITIES
DDi Europe 2002 32
ATE TEST PROGRAM BENEFITS: -
1. Speed and reliability of throughput. 2. Effective deployment of skills, targeting relatively unskilled operators for ATE test,
technicians for repairs, etc. 3. Flexibility of test due to extensive range of modules available, no requirement to purchase or
rent most types of test bench equipment. 4. Return on investment by reducing dependence upon manual inspection and test personnel. 5. Fault printouts automatically generated with Data-logging as an option. 6. Comprehensive range of testing available. 7. Test coverage for up to 2000 nets on WK 3900 providing extensive coverage. 8. Prototype build and verification (important aid for design to market time-scales). 9. Fine pitch components coverage to 12 thou with the Takaya allowing test for the latest
generation of printed circuit boards.

PTS Minimum Requirements Recommendation
Minimum information requirement for the production of ATE test solutions. The following components are required by PTS before commencing any work with program design or fixture specification: 1. 1 Fully tested and approved bare board 2. 1 Fully tested and approved loaded board, at the correct build state for the time of test, or at it’s most populated board state, whichever applies. 3. Current circuit diagram, in legible format, any circuit diagrams supplied should be preferably backed up with a soft format either in HPCL format or as a DXF file. 4. Gerber files. This should include as much information as is available from the CAD software the diagram is produced on. Any test point or node name reports, which can be generated, should also be included. 5. Full and current parts list, including build variations, and the different variants required to be included within the test, This would also be, preferably, backed up with a soft copy. 6. A fully detailed test specification should be included for all test requirements, Additional test enhancements may be included by PTS within the development period, however, only specified tests can be guaranteed to be included.
DDi Europe 2002 35
PTS Minimum Requirements Recommendation
The following requirements only apply to special cases, specifically functional tests.
1. Previous PAS for adaptation by PTS 2. All details of previous test software/hardware, including any embedded
software. 3. The loan of required software / hardware for the implementation of and
embedded software / enhancements. 4. A general introduction to the board, common faults not currently picked
up by ATE, current test solution procedure etc. An experienced test engineer should compile this.
The following are required during the commissioning period.
1. A quantity of working and faulty boards for test, as specified by the ATE engineer.
2. Commissioning period for approval by design engineer.
