Keysight partners with IPTE for in-circuit test

Nov. 16, 2015

Santa Rosa, CA. Keysight Technologies has announced it has partnered with IPTE Factory Automation to add automated in-circuit test (ICT) handlers to Keysight’s i1000 in-circuit test modules.

With this new offering, electronics manufacturers looking for minimal footprint in-circuit test solutions can add Keysight’s 19-inch rack-mounted in-circuit test solution.

“With the IPTE test handler, PCBA manufacturers can now run with two 1,664-node boards in parallel,” said Kris Smeers, IPTE sales director. “Using a Keysight ICT module with dual-lane conveyors, manufacturers can also choose to run multiple ICT tests serially. We are confident of providing one of the most versatile lines to help the end-users balance their automated solutions.”

“With this announcement, we have achieved a major milestone in our factory test automation strategy,” said NK Chari, director of marketing and support for Keysight Technologies’ Measurement Systems Division. “This partnership, together with our fully-automated i1000 small-footprint and i3070 in-circuit testers, broadens our portfolio for space-constrained customers looking for just-enough tests to ensure electrical integrity of their PCBAs.”

Keysight is hosting a series of automated in-circuit test webinars to discuss automated in-circuit test applications. Additional information, including registration for the webinars, is available at www.keysight.com/find/inline.
