Indyme, a developer of retail event-triggering communication technologies, has successfully implemented and applied the Corelis ScanExpress ADO advanced diagnostics system at its test facilities. The advanced diagnostics module adds precise structural fault identification to Indyme's existing Corelis boundary-scan test system. As a long time client of Corelis, Indyme has utilized the ScanExpress Runner Gang concurrent boundary-scan test system for high-volume production testing and programming. After experiencing unexpected and difficult-to-identify failures in a recent production run on its Connect Start platform, Indyme opted to add the Corelis ScanExpress ADO module to assist in identifying the root cause of the encountered failures.
"We had been primarily using Corelis tools for high-volume go/no-go decisions, as well as chip programming," stated Bob Wendt, Indyme's manufacturing engineering manager. "However, this set of circumstances required a tool that could help identify the root cause of our problem. Luckily, Corelis already had a software module with this capability." ScanExpress ADO led debug efforts to the root of the production failure, enabling Indyme to quickly take corrective action and greatly improving manufacturing yield with minimal resource commitment.
Wendt concluded, "With just this one fault identification, the Corelis boundary-scan tools provided a return on our investment far beyond expectations. If you have BGA parts in your product, boundary-scan is a requirement. It isn't really an option if you're serious about testing."
