Software for Discerning Polarity Defects of Elcaps, even SMT, to the Component
Software for Displaying Polarity Defects of Elkos, even SMT, to the Component
With this software you can discern polarity of electrolytic or Tantal capacitors (axial and radial) when they are already assembled. Ground or a sine signal resp. are applied to the polarised capacitor. For measuring the coupling (signal strength), a spring-loaded, shielded probe is applied to the capacitor housing. With a selective amplifier board, the small signal is amplified. The amplitude of the signal is evaluated by applying the signal alternatingly. There is an obvious difference between a minus and a plus signal (The signal is obviously higher at minus-application than at plus-application). The same method is used for finding missing capacitors at blocking of ICs or for switching small capacitors in series with Elcaps.
This software can only be used together with ATSGERB software and the following hardware: REINHARDT In-Circuit test system, polarity board, IC-Open board (SMT solder defect test) and shielded probes.
