Flying probe test systems: capabilities for effective testing
نویسنده
چکیده
The circuit board manufacturing community is now ready to embrace the concept of moving probe in-circuit test systems, also known as Flying Probers. This is due not only to the ability of Flying Probers to eliminate the cost of fixturing, but also to their new ability to satisfy the overall test requirements. This opens up the opportunity to test a new class of boards that are not cost effective to test on fixture based systems, and were not able to be tested on previous Flying Probe test systems. Requirements such as prototype development, low to medium volume manufacturing, high net count boards, and field returns are examples of prime targets for Flying Probers. What then are the capabilities a user should look for in a Flying Prober that will insure it’s most effective overall use as a quick-turn around, highly flexible test tool?

A Riccati-based tracking controller with collision avoidance capabilities is presented for proximity operations of spacecraft formation flying near elliptic reference orbits. The proposed dynamical model incorporates nonlinear accelerations from an artificial potential field, in order to perform evasive maneuvers during proximity operations. In order to validate the design of the controller, te...
متن کاملManipulation Control of a Flexible Space Free Flying Robot Using Fuzzy Tuning Approach
Cooperative object manipulation control of rigid-flexible multi-body systems in space is studied in this paper. During such tasks, flexible members like solar panels may get vibrated that in turn may lead to some oscillatory disturbing forces on other subsystems, and consequently produces error in the motion of the end-effectors of the cooperative manipulating arms. Therefore, to design and dev...

Efficient mode shape extraction of fluid-structure systems is of particular interest in engineering. An efficient modified version of unsymmetric Lanczos method is proposed in this paper. The original unsymmetric Lanczos method was applied to general form of unsymmetric matrices, while the proposed method is developed particularly for the fluid-structure matrices. The method provides us with si...
