Agilent Medalist Bead Probe Technology - A Simple and Proven Test Solution for Limited Access PCBs
Overview:
Sign up for our free webcast to learn how Agilent's latest innovation can dramatically improve in-circuit test coverage!

Agilent Medalist Bead Probe Technology is an exciting new methodology for placing test points directly onto a PCB's copper traces. These beads then serve as highly reliable test points for use during in-circuit testing. This new innovation can significantly improve test access while providing superior test reliability and repeatability. And best of all, it requires no changes to your existing SMT process.

During the webcast, our expert will present a technology overview and discuss the benefits realized by testing PCBs populated with bead probes during in-circuit test, including:
  • Improved test access and test coverage, especially for high density and high speed designs
  • Excellent probe contact - equal or better than standard probing, resulting in excellent test reliability and repeatability
  • Minimize trace re-routing - eliminate the need for PCB layout changes typically required to accommodate traditional test pads. And bead probes have no impact on PCB signal integrity, even at high speeds.
  • Simpler, cheaper test fixtures that are faster to build
Realize the benefits of improved test access with Agilent Medalist Bead Probe Technology. It's simple, reliable, and requires no changes to your existing SMT process! Sign up today!
