(Seica: Salem, NH) -- Seica Inc. has just introduced “Flying IC Thermal Detection Units” on its line of Aerial flying probers. Two integrated circuit (IC) thermal detection units are positioned on each side of the unit under test to detect thermal parameters of ICs under power. The purpose is to compare temperatures of “known good” boards to “suspect” boards and indict bad components in the depot repair environment. Seica is the first flying prober original equipment manufacturer to introduce this feature. Introducing thermal sensors with the traditional features already present on flying probers, such as in-circuit, functional, boundary scan, and power-up tests make the flying prober a continuing evolving test tool to satisfy the demanding test needs of the production and depot repair markets.
