Surface mount test points from KOA make board testing simple and reliable, samples available from Anglia
KOA have introduced the RC series of surface mount test points, also known as "checker chips", they allow customers to conveniently measure signals and voltages at various points on the PCB either during production or in the field.
Available in 4 sizes, 0603, 0805, 1206 low profile (1.25mm) and 1206 standard profile (2.0mm), the RS test terminals are compatible with reflow and wave solder processes making them easy to place alongside all the other components on the PCB.
The test points are constructed from stainless steel material for robustness and feature a tin-plated surface for soldering to the PCB whilst the inner surface is left as bare stainless steel to prevent wear during testing, furthermore the RCT (0805) and RCW (1206 stnd profile) series feature an additional stainless steel cap mounted on top of the test point for increased reliability and robustness in repeated testing applications.
The RC series of test points exhibit a low resistance of <50 mΩ, are rated at up to 2 A and have an operating temperature range from -55 °C to +125 °C.
