GPIB IEEE-488 Controller (GPIB-USB)
The GPIB IEEE-488 option allows you to connect and control external instrumentation with the CheckSum test system.
The GPIB-USB option can directly control GPIB instruments from within the CheckSum System software or you can write your own software using the included documentation. The GPIB-USB connects to an unused test system USB connector and to IEEE-488 instruments. This controller does not require a GPIB cable to connect to your instruments. You can attach it directly to the GPIB port on your instrument and then connect the USB cable to the USB port. If you have multiple instruments in a daisy-chain or star configuration, attach any cables that connect to the other instruments first, and then connect the GPIB as the last connector in the stack.
Model DIG-1 Digital I/O Module
The Model DIG-1 module can be used to power-up and functionally test circuit assemblies with digital I/O signals.
The Model DIG-1 is controlled by CheckSum’s Visual ICT/MDA™ for Windows software. This software provides a variety of software functions to create a flexible test environment. The DIG-1 digital I/O pins can also be controlled by boundary-scan.
The DIG-1 module provides 48 relay-isolated digital I/O pins and Visual ICT/MDA test systems can be configured with 96 pins per system. The module supports 3.3V and 5V logic levels. Relay-isolation allows the DIG-1 module to be used with integrated ICT/MDA and functional test fixtures.
The Model RM-1 general purpose Relay Module can be installed in an unused controller (PC) slot. It provides eight undedicated relays, four form-C and four form-A, rated at 1A. This relay module can be used for switching UUT power or signals, and also includes eight optically-isolated, high-voltage digital inputs. The Model RM-1 installs in a short PC expansion slot and has a 37-pin D-Sub back-panel connector.
50 Test Point Switch-Over Board (FIX-50P-SWO)
The FIX-50P-SWO is a 50-pole double-throw relay board normally mounted inside the fixture. It can be used to disconnect test points to eliminate loading, prevent overvoltage at the test inputs, switch test points between analog and digital signals, or to discharge the UUT prior to testing. A single TTL input signal controls all the relays. The relays are powered by a +12VDC source such as the PC’s power supply.
17 Test Point Switch-Over Board (FIX-17P-SWO)
The FIX-17P-SWO is a 17-pole double-throw relay board normally mounted inside the fixture. Relay contacts are accessed through common (COM), normally closed (NC), and normally open (NO) with each set on 17-pin headers and the relays are DPDT non-latching. This board is used to connect signals during functional test, share system resources between multiple UUTs, or provide isolation for ICT points. Works with +12V and DIG outputs from PWR-2 or FUNC-2B module.
16 Test Point Independent Relay Board (FIX-16P-IRB)
This board has independent control of 8 relays, each with 2 contacts and is normally mounted inside the fixture. It can be used to disconnect test points to eliminate loading, prevent overvoltage at the test inputs, switch test points between analog and digital signals, or to discharge the UUT prior to testing. Each of the 8 control signals activate 1 relay with 2 contacts. The relays are powered by a +5VDC source such as a system power supply. This board is used to connect signals during functional test, share system resources between multiple UUTs, or provide isolation for ICT points. Works with +5V and DIG outputs from PWR-2 or FUNC-2B module.
The Model FUNC-2 provides 16 relay-switched test points at its back panel. These test points can be expanded in 50-point increments by adding Model TR-6-1 Relay Modules (up to six TR-6-1 modules can be configured into a system).
The relay test points are used for UUT connections that exceed ± 12 volts with respect to the computer chassis when power is applied to the UUT. The Model FUNC-2 can make DMM and Counter/Timer measurements at these points. In addition, unguarded 2-wire ICT measurements (e.g. resistance, capacitance and inductance) can be made through these points. Each TR-6-1 module uses one full-length/full-height chassis slot.
TR-6-2 Fixture Interface Module
The Model TR-6-2 Fixture Interface Module provides various special functions in the test fixture. It includes two double-contact 10A power relays for switching UUT power. Optionally, it can be populated with six additional TR-6-2-RLY power relays, a dual-channel counter-timer buffer/prescaler (TR-6-2-CT), two DMM differential buffer/amplifiers (TR-6-2-DMM), and up to four 17-point switch-over modules each using two power relay sockets (TR-6-2-SWO). A breadboard area provides room for custom circuitry such as DC-DC converters. Other TR-6-2 accessories include cabling for direct connection to CheckSum’s vacuum receiver interface (50-pin is TR-6-2-THC, 17-pin is TR-6-2-SWC). All the FUNC-2 back-panel connections (relay-isolated fused power, digital and analog I/O, relay-switching) are available on the TR-6-2.
The Fixture Interface includes standoffs for easy mounting inside the fixture or on any flat surface. The 50-pin ribbon cable from the Model FUNC-2 back panel can be directly plugged into the Fixture Interface. Alternatively, when used inside a Model TR-3A vacuum test head, the special Model TR-6-2-THC plugs directly from the Fixture Interface to the inside of the fixture wiring block connected to the Model FUNC-2.
The basic Fixture Interface contains two power relays, connectors and interface circuits. You can install your own components to tailor it to your application or purchase kits from CheckSum to populate it as necessary:
The TR-6-2-SWO switch-over modules install into the power-relay sockets. Each TR-6-2-SWO, which uses two relay sockets, allows change-over of up to seventeen test points to select different source/measurement electronics or to locally isolate test points in the fixture to minimize capacitive loading on selected UUT points during power-on testing.

DM-1 Discharge System
The CheckSum Model DM-1 Discharge System isolates and protects the MDA test system electronics from an electrically charged unit-under-test (UUT). Normally, UUTs do not become electrically charged during the manufacturing process, however, functional or system testing may leave an electrical charge on a UUT. The DM-1 will protect the test system from a UUT that may have become electrically charged with up to 250 volts. The CheckSum DM-1 also protects the test system from severe static charges on a UUT. The Model DM-1 is connected between the test fixture and the MDA test system electronics. Special internal circuitry in the DM-1 prevents the MDA electronics from being connected if a charge exists.
The CheckSum test system software can detect a charged UUT and wait for the discharge. The overvoltage charge is automatically discharged. Once the UUT voltage has been discharged to a safe level, normal testing with the MDA test system can proceed. The standard CheckSum test system multiplexer cables connect to the rear of the Model DM-1. A second test cable is provided with each 50-pin discharge module to connect to the fixture.
Installing additional discharge modules in the Discharge System is quick and easy. Each DM-1-SW plug-in card protects 50 test points in the test system. The Model DM-1 can accommodate twenty Model DM-1-SW Switch Modules. A completely configured Model DM-1 Discharge System allows isolation and protection of 1000 test points. Additional Discharge Systems can be daisy-chained for higher pin-count systems.

TR-4 / TR-8 ICT/MDA Board Test Overview
CheckSum In-Circuit Test (ICT) / Manufacturing Defects Analyzers (MDAs) provide the capability to quickly and easily test assemblies for common manufacturing defects such as incorrect, missing or misoriented components, and opens and shorts. These faults comprise the vast majority of problems encountered in the typical manufacturing flow. Since MDAs have low initial purchase price and ease in programming, they provide the most cost-effective means of improving productivity. MDA systems can quickly and accurately measure continuity, capacitors, resistors, inductors, voltages, semiconductor junction voltages, and SMT connections for opens. With these basic tools, MDAs can find most faults in analog or digital assemblies before power-up. CheckSum provides a line of MDA test systems to fill the needs of different applications:
The CheckSum Analyst mc system is a low-cost, 400 test point bench top MDA test system integrated with a mechanical-advantage fixture receiver. The fixture receiver system uses quick change fixture kits.
The Model TR-4 MDA test system increases test coverage by adding the capacity for higher point counts, wider component measurement ranges, and capabilities such as complex-impedance measurement techniques and guarding.
The Model TR-8 MDA test system increases test coverage even further with a wider measurement and guarding bandwidth, higher point count, SMT-open test coverage, Boundary-Scan option, and other features.

TR-9-1000-QC Long Travel Pneumatic Fixture System Overview
The CheckSum Model TR-9-1000-QC Long Travel Pneumatic Fixture System is designed to be the basis for CheckSum stand-alone bed-of-nails test systems. Integrated into the system is rack space for system electronics, a keyboard, and a front panel with a minimum selection of buttons to make it easy, safe, and error-free for the operator to use.
The Model TR-9-1000-QC can be used for test fixturing of circuit boards up to 13.2″ x 16″. This fixture system can be used for most general-purpose bed-of-nails fixturing applications including those with top and bottom access, and TestJet Technology*.
The Model TR-9-1000-QC utilizes a 6″ long-travel mechanism so that a lid does not need to be opened and closed between tests. The unit-under-test (UUT) is simply removed and the next one put into place. To start the test, the operator uses both hands to press and hold the Test button in conjunction with a safety button. Once the test starts, the operator can release the buttons. For extra safety, a force-sensing mechanism causes the system to release if it encounters resistance during its downward travel until the last 0.5″ of travel is reached.
CheckSum is the only automatic test equipment (ATE) supplier that offers complete turnkey packages that are ready for production when the land on your receiving dock. This means you receive optimum performance and reliability at the lowest overall cost.

CheckSum Low Cost IC Test Systems
CheckSum test systems are used by the major IC design and assembly companies to test devices such as ICs and sockets for several electrical defects such as opens and shorts, incorrect resistance, capacitance or diode voltage.
The types of devices tested are typically digital ICs with dual, quad, BGA, or Flip Chip CSP (fcCSP) packaging. Since the test system interfaces to the IC with a load board, the system can quickly accommodate virtually almost any device up to 8000, or more, connections.
Rather than rely on TestJet Technology which provides a limited measurement of connectivity, these device test systems use the same test technology and measurements used by the high-performance IC test systems to validate total connectivity.
CheckSum Bed of Nails Device Test System Overview
2800 Channel Test Head (load board removed)
The CheckSum test systems are a low-cost production solution for testing even cost-sensitive IC devices. The test system’s small footprint and low power consumption allow these systems to also be used in both lab and cleanroom environments.
The system architecture can be configured with a wide range of channels. Typical configurations support up to 1000 channels, or up to 8000 channels when fully-equipped. The system can be setup to test multiple sites of devices. The high-speed solid-state switching keeps test times low. All test results can be saved for SPC (statistical process control) analysis with the built-in software package. The system login and password protect the test programs from modification by anyone that is not authorized.
The modular architecture scales from desktop test and debug with real-time analysis tools to high-volume, multi-site production on the same test system. The mechanical infrastructure can easily grow to meet your future requirements. The system can be controlled by a handler to automate the change of parts and testing without any operator interaction.
The device test system offers all of this capability with a floor space requirement of less than one meter-square. By contrast, traditional ATE systems require at least four to six times this area to deliver similar capability. The CheckSum system is air-cooled, minimizing HVAC requirements, and uses a standard 115V or 230V outlet.
The system uses a standard Windows PC to control the measurement subsystem. The connection to the DUT (device under test) can be made with a load board or other preferred interface mechanism.
IC Socket Testing
Load board installed with open IC socket, insert and test IC
The test system’s high pin count with very repeatable, low-resistance 4-wire Kelvin tests and auto-learn capability make it ideal for testing IC sockets for opens and connectivity. The system can be interfaced to an automated part insertion handler to automate the insertion and removal of components and testing.
Burn-In Boards
The test system’s high pin count with reliable and repeatable, complex impedance measurements with multiple guard channels plus an auto-learn capability make it ideal for testing all types of boards including burn-in boards. The IC sockets on the burn-in boards require special connections or test type ICs to verify open pins.
