Polar's Toneohm 850A is an ideal tool for electronics production and field service. Able to quickly and accurately locate shorts on both bare and loaded PCBs, it offers a very cost-effective means of minimizing repair and rework of faulty PCBs that have been identified by pass/fail testing on an MDA or ATE system. By combining milliohm and microvolt measurement capabilities with sensitive, non-contact, current-tracing facilities, the 850A is also able to locate most types of PCB shorts that occur during in-service use. These include the type of low resistance faults - soft shorts - that are caused by failing decoupling capacitors and 'stuck-at' logic devices, which often pose considerable problems for field service. If your problem is mainly
plane-to-plane shorts on multilayer PCBs, please ask for details of Polar's Toneohm 950.
