Aqua Rose aqueous batch cleaner/tester is designed to combine operation of precision cleaning of electronic modules and ionic cleanliness verification in one automatic step. Cleanliness measuring algorithm uses resistance of solvent extract test methodology laid out in IPC TM-650. Every batch cleaned can be programmed with an automatic Rose test of 1 to 10 min., following the final DI rinse and before the drying operation. Features include stainless cabinet and process chamber, viewing window and lighted process chamber, touch screen operation and programming, password protection, high energy cleaning and rinsing jets, rinse purity pass/fail and built-in process data logging to USB. Comes with newly designed dryer with three rotating drying manifolds. Is based on AquaTherm batch cleaner design.

Reconfigurable mini probe station model W4.0 x L6.5 is used to test a chip or small printed circuit board that can’t wait for local lab probe station availability. Has footprint of 22" x 9" x 8" and can be used at the desk or a lab. Weighs 9lbs. Is fully manual with 4" x 6.5" test plate with vacuum holes and wide probe holder plates on each positioner with multiple holes for probe mounting. Both positioners can slide back and forth in the X and Y directions and can be moved toward the DUT at the angle. Height positioning is accomplished via digital micrometers, and each positioner can be locked independently. Magnetic plates attach to normal probe mounting holes to allow additional magnetic x-y-z positioners with fine adjustment; probe arms are adjustable in the x, y, z and theta axes.

Parallel Functional Test reportedly reduces panel testing to the time of a single board and reduces or eliminates end-of-line functional test steps. Combined with ICT and MultiWriter1 flash programming, is reportedly a one-stop, all-in-one parallel solution for high-volume small boards. Overall test time for an 8-up panel of control boards is reportedly 5x faster than traditional one-up testing. Board has ICT time of 3 sec., flash programming time of 15 sec., and functional testing of 20 sec. MultiWriter flash programming technology allows programming and verification of each of eight boards simultaneously.
