Don't the companies that build boards test them? Last time I looked, it was something like:Insist that ICs are tested by the IC maker. Build raw board. Test raw board for shorts and opens. Stuff and solder board. Test complete board for shorts and opens.
And yet, working at Tech Source, I have found this to be far from perfect. Tech Source sells a number of boards from a number of different graphics vendors, and although the failure rate in our own testing is certainly not high, it's high enough to warrant doing our own testing... of many thousands of boards. Tech Source's prices, market, and vendor requirements probably have something to do with that being more cost-effective for them, but I hate the idea of a bad board getting past us. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
