Introduction
Welcome to the Production Test Suite for the FMC masterFIP board – FMC masterFIP PTS.
The FMC masterFIP Production Test Suite (PTS) is an extension of the original PTS which allows to
perform functionality tests on FMC masterFIP boards after manufacturing. The original PTS was intended
for testing boards designed for the Open Hardware Repository, but it proved to be adaptable to other
boards. It assures that the boards comply with a minimum set of quality rules, in terms of soldering,
mounting and fabrication process of the Printed Circuit Boards (PCB).
It is important to note that the FMC masterFIP PTS covers only to the functionality tests of the boards
and does not cover any verification or validation tests of the design. This document describes the FMC
masterFIP PTS components and its use.
