Cascade’s Test Engineering Team

Our test engineering team has designed test stations and test specifications independently as well as in conjunction with our customers. Our test engineering team ensures that quality requirements are met through a wide range of problem-solving techniques. Together, CST test engineers work to embed Design for Test thinking for board and system layouts to minimize capital and resource investment for mass manufacturing.

CST Test Strategy

The CST test strategy is designed to ensure that the appropriate level of testing is performed at the earliest stage in the board-level and system-level manufacturing and build processes to reduce cost through early defect detection. These tests include:

• Functional test development
• PCBA functional testing within ICT
• Boundary Scan
• Simple to fully automated testing of PCBA and finished products
• Testing of microelectronic devices

This supports a variety of test platforms including:

• Flying Probe
• System Verification Test (SVT)
• Functional Verification Test (FVT)
• Automated Optical Inspection (AOI)
• Automated X-ray Inspection (AXI) and real-time x-ray analysis

CST as an Extension of the Customer’s Test Department

Cascade serves as an extension of customer’s test department for test integration and development. These actions include:

• Development and utilization of automated and semi-automated test solutions
• Design and assemble test stations and fixtures
• Reverse engineer test systems
• Test coverage mapping to ensure conformance, quality, and product delivery
• Management of third-party test developers and fixture suppliers
• Integration of customer-supplied test platforms for volume production
