Open-Circuit Testing System and Method
First Claim
1. A testing method for determining a connection state of an electronic component in an electronic device assembly, the method comprising:
- obtaining a sensed signal induced by capacitive coupling in response to the output of a testing signal passing through a tested pin of the electronic component; and
applying a signal processing sequence on the sensed signal, the processing sequence including;
filtering and over-sampling the sensed signal to obtain a digital signal; and
computing the digital signal to determine the connection state of the tested pin.
