DfT and test coverage analysis

TestWay is a proven solution, used by many PCBA designers and manufacturers worldwide, that provides a unique approach to analyze electrical testability requirements and estimate test coverage aligned to specific test strategies, at the earliest opportunity in the design cycle.

  • Testability analysis from Schematic capture.
  • Electrical rules checking automation.
  • Test point optimization.
  • Probe placement
  • Integrated platform for coverage analysis.
  • Provide yield estimation and test strategy cost modelling.
  • Generate and optimize inspection and test program.

Traceability & Advanced repair loop

QUAD (QUality ADvisor) is a software suite built around a centralized database for providing traceability of any PCB / Systems electronic production data. It offers a powerful support for PCB fault diagnosis and collects all data regarding PCB repair to share experience between QUAD users. It provides access to detailed information in real-time that can be presented clearly and precisely using advanced reporting.

The strategic benefits that the manufacture can expect include:

  • Cycle-time reduction.
  • Time-to-market improvement.
  • Quality, productivity, and yield improvements.
  • Complete product/component traceability.
  • Innovative paperless repair loop.

Your documents and reports with one click

twDocumentor publishes all your documents or reports with one click: Load one of the templates previously created with Microsoft Word, select the TestWay Express or QuadView project to document and automatically create shop floor documentation and reports.

  • Generate documentation for manual assembly process and production documentation; test instruction sheets; testability analysis and test coverage reports.
  • Powered by the industry standard Microsoft Word.
  • Fully automated process.
  • Create a paperless production environment.

PCBA layout and schematic – Next generation viewer

QuadView is a powerful set of scalable board viewing modules that can be used either as a standalone viewer or fully integrated within customer’s applications. It can be used in the design environment to assist in DfT and test coverage analysis at the schematic capture stage and during prototype debug. Within the manufacturing environment, it becomes an integral part of the repair cycle, assisting in the locating of faults and reducing repair time significantly.

  • Ease of Use
  • Layout from native CAD formats
  • Fault ticket hot-links
  • Fully Interactive Cross-probing
  • Short-circuit search assistant
