Verification and Compliance

Controlled Impedance

Controlled impedance design using Polar Instruments equipment and software.

Testing is possible by means of test coupons using Polar Instruments CITS500S2a.

Capability is +/- 10%

The Printed Circuit boards manufactured are inspected and verified to the IPC specified requirements as described in IPC-TM-650 and the IPC-6012 document (latest).

If required a First Article Report can be generated as supporting documentation for the tests performed.

This report comprises of the following:

Acceptance Test Report Summary
Hole Size Verification Report
Dimensional Measurement Report
PCB Thickness &Layup Measurement Report
Micro section Report
Solderability Test Report
Thermal Test Report
Ionic Contamination & Surface Finish Report
Electrical and Impedance Testing Report

Process verification

The Printed Circuit boards manufactured at TraX are stringently inspected throughout the process and each department has inspectors qualified to the IPC -A-600 (Acceptability of Printed Boards) standard. All processes and documents are regularly audited and updated as part of our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system.

Process verification steps: (Not limited to the following)

Manufacturability checks at the RFQ stage.
Design rule checks during engineering.
Generation of net list and net list compare.
Laser verification of drill and router sizes on CNC machines.
Through hole plating checks done by electronic phascope measurement.
Automatic optical inspection of etched inner layers.
X-Ray verification of layer to layer registration.
XRF measurement of final finish plating thicknesses.
Flying probe electrical testing.
Final visual inspection.
