Circuit Scan: PCB Error Detection using Microcontroller

Quality assurance on PCBs these days remains a very big challenging task in the current electronics industry. The paper proposes a new way for finding defects on PCBs with a microcontroller used system, detecting such common faults as open circuits, short circuits, and misplaced components, in real time. This system will not only help in the testing process but also offer a way to decrease the production cost and downtime. By testing the hand-on implementation, the system is expected to greatly contribute to quality assurance in electronic manufacturing, allowing for more robust and reliable devices.
