A Unified Approach to In-Circuit Testing (ICT) and Functional Test (FCT) Integration

A Unified Approach to In-Circuit Testing (ICT) and Functional Test (FCT) Integration

When it comes to manufacturing electronics, two types of tests are commonly used to ensure the quality and reliability of the products: In-Circuit Tests (ICT) and Functional Tests (FCT). Although distinct from each other, these testing methods are complementary and serve specific purposes in the production process. ICT is a process used to test the integrity of individual components and connections on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). A Functional Test (FCT) is a test that assesses the overall functionality of a finished electronic product through a range of test scenarios designed to mimic real-world usage conditions. Manufacturers often separate these two testing methods into different stages due to differences in their testing methodologies, objectives, and the types of defects they are designed to detect. However, by unifying these testing methodologies and leveraging their strengths, manufacturers can achieve thorough quality control, reduce defects, and lower costs. This approach is particularly beneficial in all aspects of manufacturing, especially in the automotive sector, where intricate electronic components and interconnected subsystems are prevalent.
