The power to connect that Hioki's printed circuit board testing systems deliver is the power to connect to the future. The ability to continue to support this rich and satisfying lifestyle together with customers is a small part of what testing systems can do.
At Hioki, we strive on a daily basis to improve the contact performance--the power to connect with circuit boards--that is the lifeblood of electrical testing and to seek out the true potential of that capability. This is the path that we follow.

Capacitance testing is an essential test technique for reducing flying probe test times.

The greatest advantage of the vacuum-clamp method is that testing can be carried out without regard to the board shape or the number of layers.Products cannot be shipped unless they can be verified to be non-defective through testing.
The ability to test various boards is the top priority for a tester.

Test times are determined by the number of test points and the speed setting, which reflects the extent of impact marks.
Testing can be started without the need to concern yourself with factors such as the board's shape and thickness (single-sided, flexible, package, or CSP).

Single-sided testing is characterized by the ability to conduct continuity testing with other nets.
When using a double-sided contact flying probe tester, it may not be possible to test some points by means of capacitance measurement alone, depending on the ground plane that is set as the reference. For example, shorts between boards can be reliably detected as long as the same reference electrode is clamped.

To the extent that electrical testing is performed, probe impact marks on the circuit board are inevitable.It goes without saying that a fixed set of conditions can be easily identified for the tester if the measurement target conforms to certain fixed conditions itself.
In double-sided contact testing, when it is difficult to ascertain the state of the contact surface, probe contact mechanisms become complex.In short, various conditions conceived to minimize test times (for example, speed and the amount of downward probe force) can be specified quickly since the circuit board has a uniform test surface. The design eliminates the need to use a contact check function or test surface height correction, simplifying testing and shortening the ultimate test time.

By combining newly designed reduced-impact probes and precision soft-landing control, the FA1116-03 makes it possible to approach the maximum speed setting during fine pattern testing.

Users can select from an extensive range of variations based on the types of boards they wish to test.

In the UA1781 data creation system, Hioki developed its own software for editing Gerber data.
This software, the successor to Fly-Line, incorporates the testing expertise necessary to create flying-probe data with proprietary functionality that facilitates tasks that would be troublesome with conventional editing software, for example cavity data and processing of net connections for paint data.

Viewer software that displays defective nets and searches for defect locations based on the results of capacitance measurement.
