SAN JOSE – On the heals of increasing board complexity and size, Solution Sources Programming Inc. has found ways to extend the life of test equipment through use of recent software upgrades for Agilent’s 3070 In-Circuit Tester.
Upgrading to the latest software ensures in field compatibility. A key component of these recent updates, 7.1 and 7.2, includes 1149.6 capabilities, which use the latest chip technology for new board designs.

- Fewer wires (and thus higher reliability).
- A reduction in fixture weight (which decreases shipping costs and is safer for employees).
