What is EOL fixtures?

EOL fixtures are the end of line resistor that is in each pull station loop. It is used to put a load on the circuit so that each circuit draws a current.  Flying probe application includes EOL fixture testing. Functional test systems are the important part of the quality assurance of the electronic products. The functional test is often also combined with an in-circuit test. In the in-circuit test, PCBs with mounted components or electronic components are contacted and tested for faults in printed conductor routing, soldering and component faults. Flying probes are playing a big part in the electrical and electronic testing world. These flying probes are mostly used for testing medium to low volume production, prototypes, and in boards with accessibility issues. The testing related to flying probe implements the usage of electro-mechanical controlled probes that are used for an easy access to components on printed circuit assemblies (PCAs). These are generally in experiments and testing related to short circuits, open circuits, analog signature analysis and analog components.
