摘要:
Electric power delivery system fault location systems and methods as disclosed herein include validation of the received traveling wave fault measurements. Validation may include estimating a location of the fault using an impedance-based fault location calculation. Time windows of expected arrival times of traveling waves based on the estimated fault location and known parameters of the line may then be established. Arrival times of traveling waves may then be compared against the time windows. If the traveling waves arrive within a time window, then the traveling waves may be used to calculate the location of the fault.

A method for testing a circuit (20) designed for contactless data communication, which comprises an antenna (22) and an electronic component (24) coupled to the antenna (22), therefore comprises the following steps: generation (S1) of a magnetic alternating field of a field strength and arrangement (S2) of the circuit (20) within the alternating field range. The electronic circuit (20) is then excited by means of an energy pulse (S3). In a further step, an oscillation of the circuit (20) in response to the excitation of the circuit by the energy pulse is detected (S4). The detected oscillation of the circuit (20) is finally evaluated (S5), in particular with regard to a self-resonant frequency of the circuit (20).

Non-destructive localization of open defects in electronic devices is performed with a DC SQUID based RF magnetometer capable of sensing coherent magnetic fields up to 200 MHz and higher. RF magnetic fields (or RF current) images are correlated to conductive paths layout of the electronic device, and the open defect is pinpointed at a location of RF current disappearance on the current image. The bandwidth limitations associated with transmission line delays between SQUID circuit and readout electronic, as well as with near-field coupling between different parts of the measurement scheme, are overcome by superimposing the RF flux emanating from device under study on the modulation flux to produce at the SQUID output a binary phase modulated RF voltage, which is processed to lock the static flux, and to control modulation regime by producing an AC bias for the RF flux. RF readout electronics is based on a double lock-in through sequential demodulation of the RF component of the output SQUID voltage at the modulation flux frequency ωm and the RF flux frequency ωRF.

The present invention relates to a sensor, which detects the short circuit between high-density integrated lead wires formed on various boards, such as used in a flat panel display, in a non-contact manner, wherein an electric field is blocked by a conductor. According to the present invention, the present invention is advantageous in that it greatly improves detection performance and increases the capability to detect short circuit defects at the time of detecting a magnetic field when an electromotive force, caused by the induction of an electric field, is induced at a magnetic sensor, as in the case of a flat panel display, so that defects in metal patterns can be rapidly detected and corrected at an early stage of a manufacturing process, in cooperation with other defect testers, such as an external shape tester, thus remarkably reducing reworking costs.

In an embodiment, a probe test card (200) for testing semiconductor devices includes a printed circuit board (202), a pair of electrically conductive probes (204) extending towards one another and protruding away from the printed circuit board with a gap (206) being disposed between ends of the pair of electrically conductive probes, and a coil (212) affixed to and electrically connected to the printed circuit board and disposed directly over the gap. The probe test card is configured to generate a magnetic flux in the gap between the ends of the pair of electrically conductive probes upon the application of a current through the coil.
摘要:
A location of a fault in an electric power delivery system may be detected using traveling waves instigated by the fault. The time of arrival of the traveling wave may be calculated using the peak of the traveling wave. To determine the time of arrival of the peak of the traveling wave, estimates may be made of the time of arrival, and a parabola may be fit to filtered measurements before and after the estimated peak. The maximum of the parabola may be the time of arrival of the traveling wave. Dispersion of the traveling wave may also be corrected using an initial location of the fault and a known rate of dispersion of the electric power delivery system. Time stamps may be corrected using the calculated dispersion of the traveling wave.
