Due to the industry’s ever increasing demand for more functionality in ever decreasing PCB space, e.g. in hand held devices, Harwin, the leading hi-rel connector and SMT board hardware manufacturer, has recently expanded its popular EZBoardWare portfolio with new, small size and low profile versions of surface mount Test Points. The two new Test Points are designed to match the 2012 and 1608 metric (0805 and 0603 imperial) electronic package sizes, whilst providing secure connection points and allowing test engineers to clip on industry standard micro test clips.
Harwin’s small size surface mount EZBoardWare Test Points are fully auto-placeable to PCBs, minimizing installation costs. Available in a range of form factors to match the size of the customer’s electronic package size and in three stock sizes for maximum choice, the components have been designed to provide specific targets for test engineers to use when testing PCBs, permitting a clip on facility and allowing hands free testing.
The main target applications can be found in most markets, ranging from medical and aerospace markets through to the industrial, instrumentation and control systems environment. Essentially, any market that wishes to test their PCBs during the assembly process can be considered a target.
