Abstract

A method for populating and depopulating components of negligible impedance facilitates the testing of circuit boards. The test circuitry may be formed upon the circuit board under test. Testing may be performed with great accuracy for the time between the triggering edge of a clock pulse and a resulting valid signal change. Slew rates of bus signals may be more easily measured.
