The contactless sense probe includes a photoconductive switch and the signal bandwidth of the photoconductive switch is variable. The test signal emitter circuit configured to apply a test signal to a device under test (DUT) at a first location of the DUT, wherein the test signal includes a test signal frequency. The electro-optic sensor module is coupled to the contactless sense probe and configured to: generate an impulse signal at the contactless sense probe using an optical signal input to the first photoconductive switch; sense the test signal frequency in the impulse signal using the contactless sense probe at a second location of the DUT; and generate an indication of a defect in the DUT when the test signal frequency is undetected in the impulse signal.

Abstract: A method, system and computer readable medium for determination of distance to an electrical fault within a device. A signal generator excites the device with an electrical input signal. The device comprises an open circuited electrical transmission line. A frequency domain analyzer analyzes part of the signal reflected from the device for determination of the locations of resonant frequency of the signal within the device. A computer calculates the distance to the fault within the device, based on the resonant frequency. The distance to the fault is one quarter wavelength distance into the device at the resonant frequency. A frequency sweeper sweeps the frequency of the input signal and repeated calculation of the distance to the fault made at a plurality of resonant frequencies during the frequency sweep confirms the distance to the fault by convergence of the result of the repeated calculations to substantially the same location.
