Teradyne has announced the availability of SafeTest protection technologies in its line of TestStation in-circuit test (ICT) systems. SafeTest protection technologies protect today's newest low voltage devices against exposure to the over-voltage and over-current conditions common to conventional in-circuit test systems, providing electronics manufacturers with a safe, accurate and risk-free solution for in-circuit testing. "The smaller device sizes and lower maximum voltage thresholds of today's new low voltage technology components expose electronics manufacturers to considerable risk of damaging components through over-voltage and over-current during powered-up in-circuit testing with conventional ICT solutions," says Roy McKenzie, manager of Teradyne's in-circuit test product marketing group. "SafeTest protection technologies enable Teradyne's TestStation ICT solutions to safely and accurately test new low voltage devices. This eliminates the risk of damaging or severely weakening these new devices, ensures product quality, and reduces overall product costs." SafeTest protection technologies combine Teradyne's patented UltraPin digital pin electronics and TestStation software features for accurate and safe powered-up testing of low-voltage technologies.
