Siemens plans to integrate Aster's advanced "shift-left" design for test functionality into Siemens' Xpedition and Valor ...

Siemens has announced the acquisition of ASTER Technologies, a provider of printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) test ...

The systems have increased test throughput by up to 75% over the original testers. Also, result reporting is easier thanks to a compact database that stores all test data. Lifeline Systems provides ...

The limited access afforded to circuit nodes by PCBs densely populated with tiny components seriously challenges traditional PCB test strategies. But while optical and x-ray inspection can help fill ...

In-circuit test (ICT) systems have been the leaders in using electrical means to look for structural defects in PCBs. They employ bed-of-nails fixtures to provide electrical access to as many as 7000 ...

For testing PCBs, test engineers have a variety of options ranging from venerable in-circuit testers and flying probers to functional testers and the latest in embedded-instrument technology.

This strategic move integrates ASTER’s advanced "shift-left" design for test (DFT) functionality directly into Siemens' ...
