Identification of test points in high-density PCB packages is the key to greater PCB production testing and service troubleshooting. Keystone Electronics has developed a full line of thru-hole mount test points with a color-keyed insulator base for visibility and quick identification to replace wire-wrap posts and turret terminals.
The Keystone wire loop THM Test Points may be used on .062” and .093” thick PCBs with a variety of gripping devices: J-Hooks, EZ-Hooks, Grabbers, Alligator Clips, Tips, and Probes. Keystone’s THM test points are also designed to keep onboard terminals perpendicular to the PCB to maintain a relative position during and after wave soldering.
Available in ten colors: Red, Black, White, Orange, Yellow, Brown, Green, Blue, Grey, and Purple for use with the firm’s Miniature, Compact, and Multi-Purpose Test Points. Miniature types are manufactured from .010” (.25) Phosphor Bronze with Silver or Matte Tin Plating, while Compact and Multi-Purpose types employ the same materials sized at .015” (.38) dia. Miniature Test Points mount on a single .040” (1.0) dia. PCB hole, while Compact and Multi-Purpose styles mount on a .063” (1.6) dia. PCB hole. Delivery is from stock through the company’s global distribution network and online ordering partners.
