TestWay software assesses defect opportunities and identifies possible consequences of inadequate testability and test coverage on a new design. Analyzes each stage of the design-to-delivery workflow. Checks ROHS, reliability, DPMO, BSDL file validation to guide component selection. Verifies electrical DfT guidelines. Includes standard checks and customer’s specific checks. Optimizes test probe placement according to test strategy definitions, estimates test coverage, models the cost, and calculates production yield and TL9000 initial return rates. Estimates test coverage using theoretical models for a range of test and inspection strategies. Exports CAD data into native format usable by assembly machines, AOI, automated x-ray, in-circuit testers, flying probe testers and boundary scan testers. Can read completed test program or test report and compare the coverage between the estimated and measured analysis.
