Printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturers can take advantage of a fast, reliable and safe solution to meet the growing demand for flash/HIPOT tested (2 kV) unpopulated boards. Electrical safety testing specialists Clare instruments has developed a bespoke system utilising its HAL H101 instrument connected to a test enclosure which enables the easy flash testing of PCBs during the initial production stages. The enclosure has a conductive foam base with modular sections to accommodate different sizes of PCBs. It can have either a spring mounted probe system or a further section of conductive foam can be added to allow it to work with different types of PCBs. The move follows an increasing US-led trend that all base PCBs must now be flash tested during the manufacturing process to ensure that they have no defects and are compliant with safety standards.
