Abstract

The invention provides a testing system and method suitable for determining whether the pins of the socket are properly connected to a printed circuit board. The testing system includes a testing signal source, a socket, a signal sensing unit, a fixing element, and an analysis unit. The signal sensing unit comprises a sensor board, a probe, and an operation amplifier. The sensor board is electrically coupled to the socket, and the sensor board has a probing point. The probe is selectively contacted with the probing point of the sensor board for receiving and outputting a sensing signal. The operation amplifier is electrically connected to the probe for receiving, amplifying and outputting the sensing signal. The fixing element is used for fixing the sensor board between the socket and the fixing element.
