A continuity tester, as found on most multimeters today, is a great tool for finding broken connections and short circuits. But once you’ve found a short, it’s up to you to figure out which part of ...

A specialized test gadget that tests continuity quantitatively in both AC and DC modes could prove to be an indispensible bench test instrument. This article describes such a continuity test set up, ...

As semiconductor packages grow more complex, conventional continuity tests are no longer adequate for screening out open circuits and pin-to-pin shorts. Most test methods were designed for devices ...
