Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of circuit board testing, in particular to a circuit board debugging device. Background Art
[0002] The debugging connection of electronic circuit board products currently adopts the process of manual soldering with a soldering iron, so that one end of the debugging line is connected to the debugging resistor pad on the circuit board, and the other end is connected to the adjustable resistor device (or device). The electronic circuit board product adjusts or selects the corresponding adjustable resistor device (or device) according to the technical index requirements. After the parameters are matched, the resistance is determined. However, the conditions that need to be met by the manual soldering debugging method in actual production applications are complex, and there are many problems.
[0003] First of all, it is necessary to strengthen the job training, assessment and related management of the welding skill level of the debugging personnel to ensure that the skill level of the debugging personnel meets the work requirements; it is necessary to prepare welding equipment according to the production progress and quantity of the products to ensure the use of production tools. Secondly, due to the limitations of the external dimensions, spatial layout and PCB wiring rules, most electronic circuit board products have compact distribution of structural parts and components on the printed board, and the spacing between the component pin pads is small. The manual welding process may cause damage to the surrounding devices; the electronic circuit board debugging process needs to complete the operation steps of welding, desoldering, and repairing solder joints. Repeated use of soldering irons to contact the debugging resistor pads can easily cause pad damage; the debugging process uses manual welding, and welding equipment needs to be set up at the debugging site. There is a risk of introducing tin slag and other redundant materials during welding and desoldering; finally, electronic circuit boards are mass-produced, and the debugging process uses manual welding, which increases personnel costs and debugging work time; quality problems caused by welding during the debugging process need to be located and analyzed in a timely manner, and effective process measures should be taken for closed-loop processing.

[0031] Further, the tail end of the probe 2 is connected to an external testing device or apparatus through a wire. A heat shrinkable tube is sleeved at the connection position of the tail end of the probe 2 and the wire.
[0032] Further, the upper test board 6 and the lower test board 1 are made of a visible transparent material.
[0033] Embodiment 2:
[0034] This embodiment is a specific implementation of a circuit board debugging device. A circuit board debugging device includes an upper test board 6 and a lower test board 1. Both the upper test board 6 and the lower test board 1 use visible plexiglass as the mounting material, which is convenient for observing the contact situation between the probe and the solder joints on the electronic circuit board during the testing process and avoiding operation errors. The circuit board debugging device further includes a probe 2. Probe holes are provided on the upper test board 6 and the lower test board 1 according to the debugging pad positions of different circuit boards to be tested. The front end of the probe 2 is a telescopic concave head part. The front end of the probe 2 contacts the circuit board to be tested. The tail end of the probe 2 is connected to a wiring terminal (or connector) through a wire and is docked with a resistance adjustable device (or apparatus) such as a resistance box (or resistance board card). The probe 2 contacts the point positions on the circuit board to be tested through the probe holes on the upper test board 6 and the lower test board 1, thereby completing the connection between the point positions to be tested and the external testing device or apparatus.
[0035] A guide pin sleeve 4 and a quick-action screw 5 are also installed on the upper test board 6, and a guide pin 3 and a height-limiting post 10 are also installed on the lower test board 1; one end of the guide pin 3 is installed on the lower test board 1, and the other end has a convex portion. One end of the guide pin sleeve 4 is installed on the upper test board 6, and the other end has a hole that matches the convex portion of the guide pin 3; one end of the height-limiting post 10 is installed on the lower test board 1, and the other end has a threaded hole. One end of the quick-action screw 5 is a convex portion that matches the height-limiting post 10, and the other end is a handle. A rotating arm 7 is also provided on the upper test board 6, and a mounting seat 9 is also provided on the lower test board 1. The rotating arm 7 and the mounting seat 9 are rotatably installed together through a rotating shaft 8. Thus, the upper test board 6 and the lower test board 1 can be opened and closed like a flip cover.
[0036] The guide pin 3, the guide pin sleeve 4, the mounting seat 9, the rotating arm, and the quick-action screw are made of stainless steel. The probe 2 is a Huarong probe with low impedance, high frequency, and high hardness, and the model specification is PA100 - A2 cup-shaped concave head (head 1.5mm, tip depth about 0.7mm). The connecting wire for debugging is selected as a high-temperature wire AF - 130 / 0.08, and the wire length is selected according to the working conditions and requirements during testing.
[0037] Further, place the circuit board to be tested 11 between the upper test board 6 and the lower test board 1. After selecting a suitable probe hole, put the probe 2 into it. The probe 2 touches the circuit board to be tested. At this time, the probe 2 is in a free state. Turn the handle of the quick-action screw 5 to tighten the quick-action screw 5 and the height-limiting post 10 to determine the installation height of the probe 2. Then use epoxy glue to fix the probe 2 on the test board where it is located. When applying the epoxy glue, it must avoid the retractable part at the front end of the probe 2 to prevent affecting the subsequent positioning of the probe 2 on the circuit board to be tested and the contact effect between the probe 2 and the point to be tested. After the epoxy glue solidifies (after 24 hours), the probe fixing is completed. Open the circuit board debugging device, add a 1mm washer 3 - 1 on the guide pin 3, and add a 1mm spacer 9 - 1 at the part where the mounting seat 9 contacts the circuit board to be tested 11, so as to raise the circuit board to be tested and ensure that the front end of the probe 2 is in close contact with the point to be tested on the circuit board to be tested, achieving precise positioning. The front end of the probe 2 only touches the point to be tested on the circuit board to be tested. Tighten the quick-action screw 5 to make the front end of the probe 2 retract, and the probe 2 effectively contacts the circuit board to be tested. A heat shrinkable tube is used at the connection between the probe 2 and the wire to prevent test errors caused by contact between the two probes.
[0038] Use a digital multimeter to directly read the value or use a computer signal processing and acquisition matching method to complete the debugging. The debugger only needs to assemble with special structural components to replace soldering with a soldering iron to complete the debugging, installation, and connection of the circuit board components. In this way, the debugging environment is built to meet the product debugging requirements. The design concept and implementation plan of the present utility model can be popularized and applied to various board-level products to achieve process improvement.
