Abstract :
This paper addresses the testability considerations, both electrical and mechanical, and focuses on requirements of technologies in the 1990s. It provides practical insight into how printed circuit board should be designed to make them testable. Developing discipline in design-for-test practices will inherently provide major savings in time and money in the test development process, reducing overall product cost
