 What’s New

This module includes some of the tools and standard procedures you have
learned from the previous lessons, which will be used in various testing methods on
electronic components.

This module also introduces digital testing tools and advance methods that can
do the testing job efficiently and effectively to meet the specification and technical
requirements of an electronic component to satisfy the job orders from the clients.

The Tools
Based on the older practices and references, Voltmeters and Multi-meters were
used to test power output on computer power supplies. Testing was done terminal to
terminal and point to point of the circuit or component. (refer to the photos below)

Figure 1. Testing on an ATX PIN individually Figure 2. Individual reading

https://www.youtube.com (Screenshot) https://acidx.net/wordpress

But now, advance tools are being used to make the work easier and faster. For
example, you can test multiple PINS of a power supply simultaneously to get multiple
results right away. (refer to the photos below)

The Methods
A few years back, technicians were using the BEEP ANALYZING method in
determining computer motherboard faults and problems. Motherboard problems and
fault has a corresponding beep code. Beep codes vary from manufacturer of
motherboards and version of BIOS. Refer to the table below for AMI BIOSs.

Beep Code Analysis Recommended Fix

One Beep Refresh Failure Reseat/replace memory (RAM),

Table 1. The Beep Code Table

13
 As the technology advances, PC Analyzers or Diagnostic Cards, and other
digital tools are being used to diagnose faults and problems on electronic components
because manufacturers and industries found out that some methods will fail in some
cases.

For instance, the Beep Analyzing method, as mentioned above, will fail when
the onboard speaker or buzzer of a motherboard is dead because the test personnel
cannot hear a beeping sound anymore. So, instead of counting the beeps, PC
Analyzers display digits or codes to signify faults and problems, and these codes are
the being referred to as an error code table or lists provided and specified by the
manufacturer of the testing tool. (see photos and table below)

Table 2. The Error Code Table

The reading above in figure 5 displays a code. The user manual of the
diagnostic card has a list of codes, as shown in Table 2, with the corresponding error
that is different for every version of Interface software or BIOS version.

14
 These diagnostic tools come in various types. They are evolving from the PCI
type in figure 5, to the newer USB type in figure 6. These types are developed to satisfy
the needs of the users depending on the situation. For example, a newer model of
computers does not support PCI devices anymore, or older computers do not have a
USB port. Some manufacturers even develop the combination type for more testing
flexibility such as the testing tool below.

 Lesson
The Criteria for Testing
1
What is It

Testing Electronic Components (TEC)

Testing refers to the methods and procedures of determining the signals and
responses from an electronic component. This is done to ensure the quality,
performance, and serviceability of the components. All testing process must follow
criteria. These criteria are needed before making the plan.

Obtaining the Job Order

A job order is a form containing specifications of a task to do. This usually
includes instructions, date, and time to execute the order, address or location of the
worksite, the name of the client and his contacts, and the name of the technician.
Either you’re a test personnel in an industry or a technician in a shop, testing always
uses the job order or the client requirements as the guide. Below is a sample of a job
order form.

Form 1. A job order

16
 If you are working in a manufacturing industry of electronics components, the
responsible personnel or the supervisor in your technical department gives you the
work instructions in a form of job orders to specify the task to do.
On the other hand, testing on repair shops sometimes refers to job orders given
by the clients or customers. It is the client who gives the job, but most of the time,
technicians already know what to do if the shop is already following standardized
procedures.

Communicating or Reporting the Desired Method to Use.

The desired method that you are going to use must be reported or
communicated to the responsible person or the supervisors for verification and
approval, to ensure an efficient workflow and the success of the test. Therefore, if you
will be planning to do something, report it first to the responsible personnel.

Using the Appropriate Method

When a method and tools are approved for testing, it is considered the most
appropriate method and tools to use. The selection of the methods and tools is usually
based on the component’s specification and manufacturer’s instructions. This is a
standard practice among industries, which aims to produce quality services, efficient
workflow, effective tools, and safe working environments.

Recording the Test Process

The testing does not only require complying with the job order, consulting to the
responsible personnel, selecting the efficient method, or preparing effective tools. It
also requires recording the test process for evaluation purposes. The technician must
be able to determine at which point must he record and document the test process for
an accurate data gathering.

Activity 2. The Job Order

Directions: Analyze the situation carefully. Create a sample job order on a separate
bond-paper with A4 size. This will be compiled with your portfolio.

Assume you are the responsible personnel or the customer service

representative of a manufacturing company or a repair shop, and there comes a
customer (a client) who claims a warranty or needs a repair service of his desktop
which does not turn ON and keeps on beeping continuously. After an interview with
the client, you were able to record the details as follow:
The name of the customer is Mr. Rowel Avila. He lives in Poblacion, Bonifacio
but the defective unit is in his office at Bonifacio NHS, Liloan, Bonifacio, Mis. Occ. Mr.
Avila’s number is 0997-607-0691, but he is too busy to attend with the repair service,
so he instructed one of his staff named Arlyn Besana to assist the technician. The staff
can be reached at 0910-177-3320. These are the only details you got.
Create a job order for Mr. Avila, so the technician will know the details or
specifics of the job. (refer to the example of the job order form on page 10, Form 1).

 Lesson
The Plan for Testing
2
What is It

Planning is a must before any action. Without a plan, a test process will fail, or
will not meet the job order or client requirements.

What Tools to use?

Always choose the right tools that will give you accurate results in a lesser time.
Thus, safety comes first. Always remember to check the selected tools for functionality
and serviceability conditions. You also need personal protective equipment. Always
be mindful of the things that bring hazards to your health.

When to Start Testing?

After obtaining the job order or client requirements, you need to determine the
methods to use, the tools needed, and the amount of time to finish the job. If everything
is ready and set, then it is time to start the job. Below is an example of a test plan.

 Lesson
Testing the Components
3
What is It

There are four (4) basic testing methods done in manufacturing industries and
repair shops of computer electronic components. Each method can be done in various
procedures depending on the specific task and tools used. These are:

1. Continuity Test – the act of testing to validate if two points or terminals are
connected electrically to assure a continuous flow of signal or electrical
current. When a capacitor does not work, it could be busted and broken.

This test is usually done with the use of a MULTITESTER. Each probe of
the tester is positioned on each terminal of the capacitor to detect a
response. If there is no response, then it is confirmed that the capacitor is
dead. Refer to the picture below:

Figure 7. Testing the Capacitor

https://electrical-engineering-portal.com

21
2. Voltage or Current Test – a method used to detect losses or increase in voltage.
If a power supply is expected to give a 12 volts output, it should give the right
amount of voltage. Higher or lower than specified is considered defective.
This test is usually done with the use of a MULTITESTER, or a POWER
SUPPLY TESTER. Refer to the photos on page 6 for a picture of the voltage
testing process.

3. Performance Test – this is done to validate if the electronic component performs

as specified by the manufacturer. For example, if a processor is intended to run
with a HYPERTHREADING capabilities, then it should work as expected.
This test is usually done with the use of software and utilities. An example of
this is the software called “Performance Test”. You can run this software directly
from a USB storage. This software is capable of testing various hardware
performances. Just select the desired test on the menu on the left, then click run
to start the test. The tool looks like this:

Types of Test
The Run Button

https://www.passmark.com/products/performancetest/download.php

4. Diagnostic Test – This is done to detect faults and problems. For example, if a
computer keeps on beeping at startup, then there should be a fault or problem with
the peripheral components or the motherboard itself.

This test is usually done with the use of a Diagnostic Cards or PC ANALYZER.
Refer to the photos on page 8 for a picture of the diagnostic testing process.
Overall, if the component is functioning well and performing as specified by the
manufacturer, then it is considered a quality product or serviceable product.

Evaluating the Test Process
4
What is It

Evaluating the test process is important because it will determine the success of
similar future tests. It is done to determine the quality of the test procedures. It also
determines the performance of the test personnel and his technical needs.

To evaluate the test process, you must be able to answer the following questions:

What did you do?

Your methods and procedure should simply match with the job order.

Why did you do it?

Your methods and tools must align with the standardized procedures or
manufacturers’ instructions.

What did you find?

The testing process must produce the desired result as planned.

What did you communicate?

Always make a record and report your findings to responsible personnel or to the
clients.

What was the overall status of the test itself?

Always remember, the goal of the test is to comply with the job order or satisfy the
clients’ requirements.
