Z-Check Fixture series is for impedance verification on printed circuit boards with 50 ohm probing solutions; comes with several pitches for test coupons. Decreases error rate of impedance measurements. Can be connected to impedance-check TDR systems. Switching probe signals the start of the measurement and connected TDR software automatically takes and stores the measurements. Setup can be used for other impedances.

The DT series printed circuit board enclosure and header are designed to maintain the integrity and continuity of data and power signals in harsh environments; withstand dust, dirt, moisture and vibration. Thermoplastic enclosure accommodates a 5" x 6.5" PCB and features through-hole mounting flanges. Environmentally sealed snap in header features 90° molded in pins that mate with standard DT series plugs. Header is available in 12, 24, 36 or 48 cavity arrangements that accept size 16 contacts and 14-20 AWG wire.

3D inline x-ray system is available in X3 universal standard system and X3+, with triple detector setup. Both are based on the hardware concept of X2.5. 3D-Software uses a dedicated number of angle projections for 3D reconstruction; delivers 3D slice images needed for solder joint analysis. With algebraic reconstruction method, it is possible to generate high-resolution images for a reliable analysis with only a few projections. Analyze double-sided boards with high packing density. Generated slice images allow a separate 3D analysis for both sides of the board. Include inspection of high power components with heat sinks, where single contact layers can be separated for void or solder wetting analysis; a multilayer analysis of a solder joint is possible with digital 3D tomosynthesis. Use MIPS platform with links to all MIPS software modules for programming, classifying and verification.
