Abstract:
1. A printed circuit board (“PCB”) test fixture comprising: a support for supporting a PCB being tested in a PCB test position; an electrical tester positioned to co-operate with a PCB which is supported by the PCB support and is disposed in the PCB test position such that, when a PCB is supported by the support in the PCB test position, the electrical tester is disposed in electrical contact with a circuit on the PCB; a pusher configured for releasable coupling to a plurality of pusher members, such that each one of the plurality of pusher members is configured to co-operate with the pusher so as to become releasably coupled to and uncoupled from the pusher independently of the releasable coupling and uncoupling of at least another one of the plurality of pusher members, and such that an operative plurality of pusher members is provided when each one of the plurality of pusher members is releasably coupled to the pusher, wherein the operative plurality of pusher members is configured for translating, to a PCB which is supported by the PCB support and is disposed in the PCB test position, a force being applied by the pusher so as to effect pressing of a circuit of the PCB against the electrical tester when the PCB is supported on the PCB support and disposed in the PCB test position.
