Comprehensive PCBA Testing & Validation Services

Our engineering team covers the full cycle of PCBA validation.

Modern electronics require robust testing procedures to guarantee functionality, safety, and long-term reliability. Pikotera provides custom test systems tailored to your project’s exact specifications — from low-volume prototypes to high-volume production.


PCBA Testing Jigs (Test Fixtures) Development

We design and fabricate custom test jigs to support repeatable, fast, and accurate PCBA verification.

Every fixture is built for:

  • High durability
  • Precise mechanical alignment
  • Quick test cycle times
  • Full compatibility with your test scripts or production process

Our jigs include:

  • Bed-of-nails fixtures
  • Functional test jigs
  • RF, USB, power-path test jigs
  • Custom connector adapters
  • Pneumatic or mechanical actuators

Device Operation Analysis

Before designing a test system, we perform a complete device operation analysis to understand:

  • Functional blocks
  • Communication interfaces
  • Power states
  • Sensor/actuator interactions
  • Expected vs. actual behavior
  • Environmental constraints

This enables us to:

  • Define critical test points
  • Map necessary measurement tools
  • Identify failure risks early
  • Reduce development time

Our analysis ensures your test jig matches real-world device operation, not just theoretical schematics.


Testing Plan Preparation

A well-structured testing plan is essential for production quality. We create a test specification that covers:

  • Required test points and access
  • Functional test sequences
  • Safety and fault-condition tests
  • Firmware validations
  • Pass/fail criteria
  • Reporting structure (log files, dashboards, traceability)

Deliverables include:

  • Detailed test documentation
  • Step-by-step procedures for operators
  • Requirements for hardware, software, and measurement equipment

This prepares your assembly line for smooth, repeatable, and standardized testing.


PCBA Jig Development & Testing

Once the concept and test plan are approved, Pikotera performs full PCBA jig design, fabrication, assembly, and validation.

Our process includes:

  1. Electrical test circuit design
  2. Mechanical fixture design (3D CAD)
  3. Probe bed design / alignment
  4. Fixture wiring and integration
  5. Microcontroller-based test electronics
  6. Embedded test firmware
  7. Final verification and debugging

You receive a fully working test fixture, ready for integration into your production line.
