Medalist i3070 In-Circuit Test System

You get an intuitive point-and-click interface, automated test debug and optimization tools, and a host of other features to accelerate every aspect of test programming and deployment.

Ease of Use. The new point-and-click interface removes the user’s need to type in commands during the operation of the tester. All commands are menu based, thus the user does not need to remember each command to be executed. This allows inexperienced users to start using the system quickly.

Board Locator. The Board Locator allows the user to search for any component on the board under test as well as probes and testhead resources. This tool is an enhancement over the find pins command. This tool can be used during the test debug process to identify the location of a failing component or the location of a probe on the fixture. Together with the handheld probe, the connectivity of a component pin to the tester can be checked quickly using this tool.

Test Development Improvements. The algorithm for test development has been improved. For resistors and capacitor tests, wires selection and test options selection has been improved such that they reduce the test times of these tests. It is possible for a typical board to see 20% improvements to the analog test time. The node sequencing in the shorts test has been recalculated to reduce the occurrence of phantom shorts.

AutoOptimizer. Keysight Medalist i3070 tests can be optimized with the click of a button, reducing test time by 10 to 50 percent per test. AutoOptimizer checks to see that tests are stable, and cleans up any conflicts in code to get a clean, smooth - running test. It’s great for cleaning up programs that have been modified during production runs, allowing tests to once again run fast, clean and reliably.

AutoDebug. With the Keysight Medalist i3070 i3070, unpowered passive analog components can be debugged with the click of a button, so even someone with limited ICT experience can perform a complete analog test debug in a matter of hours. AutoDebug fine-tunes tests so boards pass reliably in production. It runs the selected test, captures measurement data, evaluates the data, adds or deletes measurement options, and compiles the tests. You set the rules, and AutoDebug does the rest.
