Abstract:
Apparatus for producing and testing a plurality of preferably identical electronic units, in particular electronic units in power electronics, comprisinga carrier board member (10) which comprises a circuit board material and which has a plurality of conduction layers, wherein the plurality of electronic units can be produced on surface regions (12) of the carrier board member by a preferably automated fitting process with electronic components (16) and in particular are arranged at regular spacings from each other, and the surface regions (12) are held at predetermined separating regions (32) of the carrier board member, which are designed for a separation operation, to a frame region (34) of the carrier board member, the frame region extending around the surface regions, characterized in that the carrier board member in the frame region (34) has an externally contactable, central, electrical connecting region (28) for an operating voltage or load for the plurality of electronic units, each of the plurality of electronic units can be acted upon with the operating voltage, a load or another electrical signal, by way of supply, load and/or signal lines (24) formed in the frame region (34) and at an associated separating region (32) of the carrier board member, and the apparatus is so designed by dimensioning of the conduction layers that the plurality of electronic units can be operated and tested by means of the supply as well as the load and/or signal lines in a full-load mode of operation.
