Hello,
Over the years the boards that I design become more and more dense with com= ponents on both sides of board and even thinner tracks and smaller vias tha= t are too close to each other. that has made assembly and quality control= more difficult. sometimes technician needs to read voltage from a small v= ia and oscilloscope probe or multimeter lead slips and short circuit to poi= nts and damages the board significantly.=20 I like to hear from experienced users, what guidelines they consider in des= igning and placing test points in dense boards.
regards, Ebi
