Rapidly identifying the cause of failures in your PCBs with:

• Best technical specifications driving accurate test and reliable fault identification
• Configurable test capabilities
• A wide range of diagnostic tools which can also be used interactively
• Reverse engineering of electrical schematic diagrams
• Rapid learning curves through an easy-to-use software environment

It enables you to select and apply different test techniques to a single circuit which ensures maximum fault coverage giving you full confidence in your circuits.

The PinPoint II R gives you the following capabilities:

• Passive in-circuit test
• Dynamic digital in-circuit functional test
• Functional analog in-circuit
• Boundary Scan in-circuit
• Boundary Scan connector (Optional)
• Advanced Nodal Signatures
• Functional analog edge connector
• Dynamic digital functional edge connector test
• Analog functional with external instruments (Optional)

The PinPoint II R system performs functional tests on individual components using in-circuit test methods and a fixtureless clip technique. These dynamic digital and analog tests prove the correct operation of each device and can also detect open circuit tracks or incorrect, broken or missing passive components on networks. These digital tests can also be applied at the edge connector of a circuit to prove the functionality of the whole circuit.

When used for component level diagnostics, PinPoint II R gets to the heart of a problem, minimizing PCB re-work by identifying a fault to the actual component or network, precisely and accurately. To ensure safe in-circuit testing the PinPoint II R conforms to stringent back-driving controls and requirements.

Extending the capability of the PinPoint II R system even further is its inherent capability to control PXI and GPIB instrumentation. Having control of these instruments through the user friendly TestVue software allows you to create functional analog tests for your circuits.

Instrument Strategizer gives the capability to graphically program and sequence instruments with other code to provide a seamless mixed signal test program. Additional power supplies can also be added to enhance the standard system UUT (Unit Under Test) power supplies for extended test capabilities.
