Abstract

A test system for electronic circuit boards (38) including integrated circuits (27, 28) having integral boundary scan circuits (29, 32) includes a manufacturing defects analyser having at least one robotic probe (37). In use, a first scan circuit (29) is arranged to apply a signal to an interface connection (30) to be tested and the signal is sensed by a probe (37); and a second scan circuit (32) is arranged to sense any signal transmitted by an interface (34) under test when a signal is injected by the probe (37). The robotic probes are also used to measure, e.g. impedance, voltage drop and V/l curves on discrete components (36). The robotic probes may also drive and/or sense analog signals. <IMAGE>
