Quality control department
The quality control department in collaboration with the verification area assures the 100% quality of the circuit boards.
- In-Circuit testing. One of the test systems we use is the four automated In-Circuit testing machines that use bed-of-nails testing procedures to detect possible faults in the components, boards, short-circuits, etc.
- Bed-of-nails functional testing. Three machines that can do tests on the circuit boards by applying all types of analogical and digital signals and then measuring the results to assure the board is working correctly.
- Manual functional tests. Another type of test is done by testers that are specifically designed and manufactured in Electrónica Falcón for each circuit board.
- Boundary Scan-JTAG test. Boundary scan embeds test circuitry at chip level to form a complete boardlevel test protocol. By providing access to the scan chain I/Os, the need for physical test points on the board is eliminated or greatly reduced. In addition to board testing, boundary-scan allows programming almost all types of CPLDs and flash memories, on the board, after PCB assembly.
Safety
Given the importance of static electricity in electronic, the company is designed and fitted out with equipment and facilities whose function is to eliminate static electricity and all the personnel have the necessary anti static equipment for the handling of components and circuit boards.
