  • Patent number: 6535005
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to techniques for obtaining an electrical characteristic of a circuit board assembly process which involves mounting a module to an installation location of a circuit board using the circuit board assembly process, and measuring leakage current of the test structure in response to an electrical signal (e.g., a voltage) applied to the installation location. One can then determine the surface insulation resistance (SIR) of the test structure based on the electrical signal and the leakage current in order to assess the suitability of the circuit board assembly process. One arrangement of the invention is directed to a system for obtaining an electrical characteristic of a circuit board assembly process.
