  • Abstract
    A description is given of some approaches implemented in both hardware and software to reduce production test and test development costs for power supply circuits. Opportunities for cost savings during production power board testing are emphasized. Analog testability issues are discussed with a power board emphasis. Various fixturing methods are presented along with their advantages and disadvantages. Hardware and software techniques are discussed which enhance testing, increase productivity and reduce product cost
