We
are using an equipment called Huntron Tracker
2000. This equipment utilising a method called Analog Signature Analysis. It will apply a current limited AC sine
wave across two points of electronics component or circuit. The result will
show on the screen. It will show the condition of the components. By comparing
the signatures of known good circuit boards to those of suspect boards, faulty
nets and components can be quickly identified.
Example:
These images show good versus bad signatures (good is green and bad is red). The signatures on the left show a damaged transistor (leakage) compared to a working device. The signatures on the right show a good inductor and one with shorted windings.
These images show good versus bad signatures (good is green and bad is red). The signatures on the left show a damaged junction from a 74S04 IC. The signatures on the right show a good capacitor and one with internal leakage.
