1 Electronics Product

Before proceeding in assembling an electronic product, the technician


should have a vast knowledge on what he/she will do. This is important because
lack of knowledge in electronics will lead to accident such as electrocution, injury,
fire, or worst even death.

Technicians must always be aware or be guided in OHS policies and


procedures and knowledgeable in all of the tools he/she will use.

Notes to the Teacher

What’s New
To be able to deliver this lesson well, the teacher must have read,
and/or has industry experience in the following:
OHS standards and procedure in electronics
Proper use of hand tools and equipment
Test electronic components

Safety Check
● Maintain cleanliness of working areas.
● Make sure all entrance, exit, walkways, hallways are free from any
obstruction in case of emergency
● Always use the appropriate PPE’s depending on job requirements.
● Understand your duty in case of an emergency.

Proper use of hand tools and equipment


● Familiarize yourself from the equipment and tools to be used.
● Only use the appropriate tool and equipment for the task.
● Do not use improvised tools to do certain task.

Obtaining proper parts and components


● Properly check specification/s of each component.
● Segregate each component according to type and usage.
What is It

Safety checks is a standard operating procedure in all task done in


electronics. The most common term used in the industry is called OHS or the
Occupational Safety Hazard. It is the guideline used to ensure the safety of the
people working in the assembly line. Common example of OHS are the proper use
of PPE and the proper procedure during an emergency.

In our lesson assembling electronic products we should be guided on how to


manage health and safety at work. As a good technician you should:

a. Identify the hazard- identify all potential source of hazard in your


working area/ working station.in this step you should be able to foresee
any materials, tools, equipment that may injure someone. It is important
that you should be able to describe that specific hazard and who might
be harm to be able to warn anyone.
b. Assess the level of risk1- after spotting all hazards in an area, an
individual should assess how serious the harm could be, how badly it
could harm you or someone else. To fully understand this step, we will be
using the risk matrix calculations-severity, probability, and risk
assessment guide it uses 3 components of the risk matrix to utilize in a
risk assessment
1. Severity- Amount of damage or harm a hazard could create. It is
classified in 4 different levels namely:

Catastrophic 4. Operating conditions are such that human


error, environment, design deficiencies, element,
subsystem or component failure, or procedural
deficiencies may commonly cause death or major
system loss, thereby requiring immediate cessation of the
unsafe activity or operation.

Critical 3. Operating conditions are such that human


error, environment, design deficiencies, element, subsystem
or component failure or procedural deficiencies may
commonly cause severe injury or illness or major
system damage thereby requiring immediate corrective
action.

1 (https://www.industrysafe.com/blog/risk-matrix-calculations-severity-probability-and-risk-assessment/
2018)
Marginal 2. Operating conditions may commonly cause
minor injury or illness or minor systems damage such
that human error, environment, design deficiencies,
subsystem or component failure or procedural deficiencies
can be counteracted or controlled without severe injury,
illness, or major system damage.

Negligible 1. Operating conditions are such that personnel


error, environment, design deficiencies, subsystem or
component failure or procedural deficiencies will result in
no, or less than minor illness, injury, or system
damage.

2. Probability- the likelihood of the hazard occurring. It is in 5


different levels namely:
Frequent 5 Likely to occur often in the life of an item.
Probable 4 Will occur several times in the life of an item.
Occasional 3 Likely to occur sometime in the life of an item.
Remote 2 Unlikely but possible to occur in the life of an item.
Improbable 1 So unlikely, it can be assumed occurrence may
not be experienced.
3. Risk assessment- multiply the scores of probability and severity
together. Risk assessment levels are shown below with their
corresponding level.

Figure 1 Risk assessment table

c. Control the risk- as a technician it is your responsibility to fix or to


reduce the exposure to such hazards. In this last step, you the assessor
will formulate plans on how to minimize or remove such hazard. You
should be aware who should carry out the action for it to be effective.

2 (https://www.industrysafe.com/blog/risk-matrix-calculations-severity-probability-and-risk-assessment/
2018)
Figure 2.

Proper use of hand tools and equipment is a second factor in our


safety in doing task in electronic assembly. Always remember that there is always a
proper tool to do a specific task. Each user must be knowledgeable on how to
properly use and maintain their tools. This is to ensure that the standard operating
procedures are being follow. Also, by using the right tool for a certain task
maximizes the production quantities and minimizes production defects.

In our lesson assembling electronic products the following materials, tools


and equipment are needed to finish the task.

In using the required materials, tools, and equipment. A technician must
observe the proper use of PPE that is appropriate for the task that conforms to the
safety standards.
Obtaining proper parts and components is important in assembling an
electronic product. This will ensure that all the assembled product will work and
avoid loss of time assembling something.
One must be familiar in how to properly check a component for defects
before use. All companies around the globe always practice quality control of the
shipped or received product in their respective warehouses. All of them has a
system on how to properly check if the components conform to the specification
through sampling.
On the other hand, if you are an owner of a small electronic shop, you as the
technician should properly check each component that will be used in a certain
task. This is to ensure that you will provide good services to each of your
customers, and this will also make your work safe. You may also be required to
access datasheets of each components used available on the web to guide you on
what specifications a component must possess.
When obtaining parts and electronic components you must:
● Visually check each component for physical damage
● Check each component if it conforms with the specifications provided
by the manufacturer (e.g. resistance of each resistor must produce
resistance within the allowable values corresponding with the color
codes, capacitor is not leaking etc.)
● Sort each component base on their functions and specifications (e.g.
capacitors are sorted according to voltage rating and capacitance,
resistors are sorted according to resistance etc.)

Testing an electronic component is a must before usage. Some of you may


have an idea on how to test certain electronic components during your exploratory
subject in consumer electronics. If it is so, you can jump to the next section of
this module. But for some of you that forgot or did not have consumer electronic
exploratory subject these are some refresher.
Capacitors- To test the capacitor with a multimeter5,
1. set the meter to read in the high ohms range, somewhere above 10k
and 1m ohms.
2. Touch the meter leads to the corresponding leads on the capacitor,
red to positive and black to negative.
3. The meter should start at zero and then moving slowly toward infinity.
This means that the capacitor is in working condition.
4. If the meter stays at zero, the capacitor is not charging through the
battery of the meter, meaning it is not working.
Caution! Before doing the test of resistor always discharge it by
connecting the pins with another metal.

5 (https://www.ifixit.com/Wiki/Troubleshhoting_logic_board_components 2019)
Resistors- To test resistors, one must be familiar with resistor color codes,
this was discussed in your junior high school. But for the sake
of ease of remembering the color codes are:

Figure 3

1. Decode the resistance of the resistor using the above table


2. Compute for the allowable resistance value (e.g. red, red,
brown, silver is 220Ω ±10%, the allowable resistance for the
lower limit is 220-22 while the upper limit is 220+22.)
3. Adjust your ohmmeter to the nearest high value resistance to
the value you decode for 220 the nearest is 2000Ω.
6 (https://static4.arrow.com/-/media/arrow/images/miscellaneous/h/how-to-read-resistor-color-codes.jpg?
la=en&hash=21018796E46BD04CD6E01630B12B645BB011FBA2 2017)
4. Measure the resistance and if the measured resistance is
below 198 the resistor is under resistance and if above 244 it
is over resistance. Over or under resistance resistors will be
disregarded while resistors with read resistance between 198
and 244 will be used.
Diode- Step by step instructions7:
1. Set the meter to its ohms range - any range should do, but the middle
ohms range if several are available is probably best.
2. Connect the cathode terminal of the diode to the terminal marked
positive on the multimeter, and the anode to the negative or common
terminal.
3. Set the meter to read ohms, and a "lowish" reading should be
obtained.
4. Reverse the connections.
5. This time a high resistance reading should be obtained.
Notes:
● In step 3 above the actual reading will depend upon a number of
factors. The main thing is that the meter deflects, possibly to half
way or more. The variation depends on many items including the
battery in the meter, and the range used. The main point to note is
that the meter deflects significantly.
● When checked in the reverse direction, silicon diodes are unlikely to
show any meter deflection whatsoever. Germanium ones that have a
much higher level of reverse leakage current may easily show a small
deflection if the meter is set to a high ohms range.

Transistors- Step by step instructions:8

n.d.)

n.d.)
Figure 4

The instructions are given primarily for an NPN transistor as these are
the most common types in use. The variations are shown for PNP
varieties - these are indicated in brackets (.. .. ..):

1. Set the meter to its ohms range - any range should do, but the middle
ohms range if several are available is probably best.
2. Connect the base terminal of the transistor to the terminal marked
positive (usually coloured red) on the multimeter
3. Connect the terminal marked negative or common (usually coloured
black) to the collector and measure the resistance. It should read open
circuit (there should be a deflection for a PNP transistor).
4. With the terminal marked positive still connected to the base, repeat
the measurement with the positive terminal connected to the emitter.
The reading should again read open circuit (the multimeter should
deflect for a PNP transistor).
5. Now reverse the connection to the base of the transistor, this time
connecting the negative or common (black) terminal of the analogue
test meter to the base of the transistor.
6. Connect the terminal marked positive, first to the collector and
measure the resistance. Then take it to the emitter. In both cases the
meter should deflect (indicate open circuit for a PNP transistor).
7. It is next necessary to connect the meter negative or common to the
collector and meter positive to the emitter. Check that the meter reads
open circuit. (The meter should read open circuit for both NPN and
PNP types.
8. Now reverse the connections so that the meter negative or common is
connected to the emitter and meter positive to the collector. Check
again that the meter reads open circuit.
9. If the transistor passes all the tests then it is basically functional and
all the junctions are intact.
Notes:
● The final checks from collector to emitter ensure that the base has not
been "blown through". It is sometimes possible that there is still a
diode present between collector and base and the emitter and the
base, but the collector and emitter are shorted together.
● As with the germanium diode, the reverse readings for germanium
transistors will not be as good as for silicon transistors. A small level
of current is allowable as this results from the presence of minority
carriers in the germanium.

LED lights- Step by step instructions


1. Turn the multimeter dial to the diode setting.
2. Connect the black probe to the cathode (shorter prong) and the
red probe to the anode (longer prong) LED should light after
making the connections. Make sure that the two probes and
prongs do not touch each other
3. Evaluate the brightness of the LED (dim lights LED is likely low
quality, while bright ones are high efficiency
4. If no lights, disregard the use of the LED

What is It

AC-DC POWER SUPPLY

A DC Power Supply Unit (commonly called a PSU) deriving power from the AC
mains (line) supply performs several tasks:
1. It changes (in most cases reduces) the level of supply to a value suitable for
driving the load circuit.
2. It produces a DC supply from a pure AC wave.
3. It prevents any AC from appearing at the supply
output.
4. It will ensure that the output voltage is kept at a
constant level, independent of changes in:
a. The AC supply voltage at the supply input.
b. The Load current drawn from the supply output.
c. Temperature.

To do these things the basic PSU has four main stages, illustrated in Fig. 2

11

Figure 2 Block diagram of AC/DC Power supplies,

In the Philippines, our electricity is rated at 220V AC/60Hz, and


almost all our home appliances use DC at operates at a much lower voltage.
Thus, the need to reduce that voltage by using step-down transformer.

11 (https://learnabout-electronics.org/Downloads/Power%20Supplies%20Module%2001.pdf n.d.)
Warning! If you are considering building or repairing
a power supply, specially one that is powered from
mains (line) voltages. High voltages present in power
supplies can, and from time to time do KILL.

Types of Rectifier Circuit

There are two types of rectifier, Half-wave Rectifier and the Full-wave
Rectifier. Under a Full-wave rectifier, there are two types, the Center-tapped
and the Bridge Rectifier.
1. Half-wave Rectifier Circuit
One rectifier diode D1 and one load resistor RL are needed to
conduct one alteration in every cycle of small AC input.
Note: Compare the difference of the three circuits in your lecture:
a. Half-wave
b. Full wave
b.1. Center-tapped
b.2. Bridge

Figure 3 schematic diagram of Half Wave Power supply, Source:


https://learnabout-electronics.org/Downloads/Power%20Supplies%20Module%2001.pdf

Figure 3 illustrates a single silicone diode that may be used to obtain DC


voltage from AC. This system is cheap but it only applicable for non-demanding
uses.

2. Full-Wave Center-Tapped Rectifier Circuit


This type of circuit requires a center-tapped transformer, two
rectifier diodes, and a load resistor (R L). Each of the diode supplies
one-half the DC load current. This design is more efficient than the
latter but requires much expensive transformer.
2. Full-Wave Bridge Type Rectifier Circuit

Figure 5 Schematic Diagram of a Full-Wave Bridge Type Power Supply, Source:

The full-wave bridge type rectifier circuit uses four rectifier diodes
arrange in a bridge circuit as shown in figure 5 to give full wave
rectification without the need of a center-tapped transformer. This circuit
can deliver a higher current range to the load because all cycles are
consumed by the four diodes.
The operation of this rectifier circuit is different from the Half-wave
and Full-wave center-tapped. The conduction of AC voltage starts from
Line-A going to Line-B.

Conduction of Diode in Full-Wave Bridge Type Rectifier Circuit

First Conduction
The negative half-cycle will be conducted to the cathode of diode D1,
and then thru the RL it will conduct to the cathode of diode D4 goes to Line-
B. In this case D1 and D4 are conducting.

Figure 6 Diode Conduction (1st to 2nd), Source: https://learnabout-electronics.org/Downloads/Power


%20Supplies%20Module%2001.pdf

Second Conduction
The positive half-cycle will be conducted to the anode of diode D2 and
then thru the RL, it will conduct to the anode of diode D3 goes to Line-B. In
this case D2 and D3 are conducting

Characteristics of a Full-Wave Bridge Type Power Supply

a. Expensive
b. Needs a lower value of capacitance
c. Needs four rectifier diodes

Filter Stage

This stage of the power supply smoothens the pulsating DC output


voltage of rectifier circuit by reducing the amount of ripple voltage. It also
provides the charge voltage for the load while the rectifier diode is not
conducting.
Figure 7 filtering, Source OASIS-HOTEL-Revised-TVL-Materials

Ripple-Voltage is an AC component present in the DC output voltage of


rectifier circuit.
Basic Methods of Filtering

1. Simple Capacitor in Parallel


You can connect as many electrolytic capacitors in parallel as you
want to increase the amount of capacitance causing good filtering effects
to DC output. This is used for high current applications. The only
disadvantage is that it will occupy a bigger space.

Figure 8 Filter circuit, Source OASIS-HOTEL-Revised-TVL-Materials

2. Filter with RC Circuit


This circuit is a resistor in series with the positive line together with
two bypass capacitors C1 and C2. It is good in lowering the DC voltage
output.

Figure 9 Filter with RC Circuit, Source: https://learnabout-electronics.org/Downloads/Power


%20Supplies%20Module%2001.pdf
3. Filter with Inductor
This circuit has a good filtering effect to the pulsating DC output of
the rectifier. It uses minimal value of capacitance and it is good in both low
and high current applications. The only disadvantage is that the inductor in
series with the positive line takes up big space in mounting it in the PCB.

assess the level of your learning.

Manufacturing Printed Circuit Board


In PCB designing, the focus should be on the types, kinds, and
characteristics of the component rather than the size of the pathways. Here are the
other design factors needed:

1. PCB size and shape. The PCB must be big enough for the entire component
to be mounted on a specific area.
2. Position of the Terminal. Input, output, and supply voltage should be placed
near the border to facilitate possible troubleshooting or minor repair.
3. High Temperature Dissipation. Too much heat is the number one problem of
all components. Bigger space is needed so that heat sink (absorb heat from
the active component) can be provided to the component. This will protect
the component from burning up.
4. Accessibility of Components. Those components that are adjustable or
variable (example: potentiometer, trimmer resistor, or capacitor) should be
placed near the border to facilitate possible troubleshooting or minor repair.
5. Space for Bolt and Nut. The designer should place a good space for mounting
the PCB with bolt and nut in securing the entire board to the chassis.

Printed circuit board etching


Etching is the removal of unnecessary portion of conductive material, in this
case the copper layer. Ferric chloride solutions liquifies the uncovered surfaces of
the designed copper clad board through chemical reactions.

Multimeter Copper clad laminate
Sandpaper (#1000) Computer/smartphone
Nail polish remover
Permanent marker Flat iron
Masking tape
Pencil and paper
Old glossy magazines
Photo paper
Heat transfer paper

Step by step fabrication of PCB modules

Method 1: Powder print transfer method. If LaserJet printer


is available

1. Prepare copper trace for your designed PCB using any CAD
application.
2. Print the images produced in the old glossy magazines/photo
paper/ heat transfer paper/ any paper using only a LaserJet
printer/ Powder photocopy machine/ toner printer.
3. Cut the copper clad laminate according to required size.
4. Using sandpaper or steel wool slightly scratch the copper
layer
5. Place the printed copper trace to the copper layer (copper
layer must face the printed side of the magazine paper)
6. Fix the paper and board with tapes.
7.
a. Apply heat by using flat iron and make sure that the
printed traces are transferred to the blank PCB.

Figure 122 Transfer of carbon to copper layer using flat iron


b. If flat iron is unavailable, apply nail polish remover to the
paper and wait for it to dry.

Figure 13 Transfer of carbon to copper layer using nail polish remover

8. Wash the board with water to remove the paper slowly using
sponge or any smooth fabric.
9. Check for connections that has no ink trace, correct them
using permanent markers and connect the traces.
10. After removing all paper and corrected the traces, drop the
board into a container with ferric chloride, agitate the acid to
speed up the process of removing copper.
11. Clean the board with steel wool to remove the carbon layer,
nail polish remover will also do the trick.

Figure 14 Removing of carbon/ink using nail polish remover and cloth

12. Place the printed labels (silkscreen) on the substrate layer


and fix them
13. Iron the silkscreen and ensure the carbon is transferred to
the substrate.
14. Wash the board with water to remove the paper slowly using
sponge or any smooth fabric.
15. Clean and dry your PCB
16. Inspect the connections of copper visually and using
multimeter. Each connected trace (e.g. trace 1 from left to
right must have continuity and so on per trace). While trace
1 to trace 6 must be independent and no continuity will be
recorded.
17. If it passes to the inspection your PCB is ready for boring.

Figure 14 sample copper trace of regulated power supply with numbered copper
trace (produced using PCB Droid app)

Pros for this method are:

a. small copper traces can be done


b. accurate hole distances
c. can set accurate PCB size
Cons:

a. process requires equipment that may not be readily available (laser


printer)

Method 2: permanent marker method. When LaserJet


printer/powder printer is not available, a permanent marker
will be used to mark copper traces.
1. Draw the copper trace to the copper side of the copper clad
laminate using permanent marker
2. Retrace the drawing 3-4 times using permanent marker after
drying
3. Drop the board into a container with ferric chloride, agitate
the acid to speed up the process of removing copper.
4. Wash the board with water to remove the acid from the board
5. Remove ink using nail polish remover.
6. Clean your PCB using a brush.
7. Inspect the connections of copper visually and using
multimeter. Each connected trace (e.g. trace 1 from left to
right must have continuity and so on per trace). While trace 1
to trace 6 must be independent and no continuity will be
recorded.
8. If it passes to the inspection your PCB is ready for boring.

Pros for this method are:


a. Process is cheap
Cons:
a. Inaccurate hole distances
b. Small copper traces may not be attainable
c. Accurate PCB size is a little bit difficult to attain

Method 3: Masking tape method. When LaserJet/powder printer is not


available but a need for a much smaller copper traces, a
masking tape and pen will be used.

1. Using masking tape, tape the copper layer of the copper clad
board.
NOTE: if the copper clad board is large and the tape is
narrow, ensure that each side is over the other to cover all
copper layer and prevent hairline break.
2. Using a pen, draw your designed traces to the masking tape.
NOTE: ensure that drawn copper trace is at least 1mm wide.

3. Using metal ruler and utility knife, remove masking tape


without ink trace.
NOTE: be careful not to cut the copper layer of the copper
trace to lessen the risk of hairline break.
4. Drop the board into a container with ferric chloride, agitate
the acid to speed up the process of removing copper.
5. Wash the board with water to remove the acid and masking
tape from the board.
6. Dry and clean your PCB using dry fabric and paint brush
7. Inspect the connections of copper visually and using
multimeter. Each connected trace (e.g. trace 1 from left to
right must have continuity and so on per trace). While trace 1
to trace 6 must be independent and no continuity will be
recorded.
8. If it passes to the inspection your PCB is ready for boring.

Characteristics of Good PCB Design – 4C’s


a. Clean. It should be clean so that the representation of the schematic
diagram is easy to mark and easy to troubleshoot.
b. Compressed. Reducing the size for space saving in chassis.
C. Creative in Design. There is a pattern or image when it is created.
D. Consistency in Component. The components should be well arranged
in group.

Techniques on how to correct PCB hairline break or short


A. Hairline break- when a produced PCB has copper trace that is broken as
shown below the only way to correct it is to solder a hook up wire.
Figure 15 (left) enlarge image of hairline break, (right) corrected with hook up
wire

B. Hairline short- this defect is caused if the etching is not done


properly. To eliminate these kinds of defects just use a utility knife to
cut the copper.

Procedures:
1. Prepare tools, equipment, materials, and PPE in mounting and
soldering electronic component into PCB
2. Clean the terminals of the components to be soldered and the
copper layer of PCB, remove rust and any foreign materials
3. Plug the soldering iron into the power source. Pre heat your
tools before using. If rework station will be used, set your
temperature to 300-400 range. Ensure that it is placed in a
soldering stand to avoid accident or damaging other tools
4. Start mounting electronic components from the smallest
before going to the largest.
Figure 3 sample mounting procedure on a DIY FM transmitter

5. Check the polarity of components before soldering them.


6. When the soldering iron has attained its desired heat, solder
the components one by one. Ensure that the base metal
(copper layer/solder mask) and the component lead is properly
heated before applying solder.
7. Cut the excess terminals of the components using side cutters.
When cutting it’s a best practice to hold the terminal to avoid
flying and injure yourself.
8. Check for shorted solders and remove them.
9. Check the continuity of your components using a multimeter

What’s New

Before we proceed to the lesson let’s play a game.

Numbers game
Have a pair and for 20 seconds, find the numbers from 1-49. No cheating!

How many did you find?


What is It

What is the significance of this activity to our lesson? To achieve our goal in
finding all the numbers, we must find a way to be efficient. Like working in an
electronic shop or in any environment, to finish the task being efficient is one way
of attaining the goal quickly and effectively.

To achieve efficiency the following steps should be done:

1. Get rid of numbers 50-90.


2. Subdivide the picture into smaller and manageable size
3. Organize the numbers from 1-49

We can achieve efficiency improvements by using 5s. like the example above
the 5’s procedures are:

Japanese American
Definition
Term Term

Sort through materials, keeping only the essential


items needed to complete tasks. (This action
involves going through all the contents of a
Seiri Sort workspace to determine which are needed and
which can be removed. Everything that is not
used to complete a work process should leave the
work area.)

Ensure that all items are organized and each item


has a designated place. Organize all the items left
in the workplace in a logical way so they make
Seiton Set in Order tasks easier for workers to complete. This often
involves placing items in ergonomic locations
where people will not need to bend or make extra
movements to reach them.

Proactive efforts to keep workplace areas clean


and orderly to ensure purpose-driven work. This
means cleaning and maintaining the newly
Seiso Shine organized workspace. It can involve routine tasks
such as mopping, dusting, etc. or performing
maintenance on machinery, tools, and other
equipment.

Seiketsu Standardize Create a set of standards for both organization


and processes. In essence, this is where you take
the first three S's and make rules for how and
when these tasks will be performed. These
standards can involve schedules, charts, lists,
etc.

Sustain new practices and conduct audits to


maintain discipline. This means the previous four
Shitsuke Sustain S's must be continued over time. This is achieved
by developing a sense of self-discipline in
employees who will participate in 5S.

Testing of the finished regulated AC-DC power supply


Before operating an electronic product, a series of test must be
observed to ensure that the product will not cause harm and we can
ascertain that it will work.
Sample test in electronic products are:
a) Visual test- all components are visually check for compliance
with the schematic diagram, and for some noticeable damage
b) Aging test- where the product is subjected to a series of test to
simulate years and years of use of the item.
c) Substitution test- if a device is not outputting the correct output
an electronic component is located and place with a known
working one to test if it will work.
d) Mechanical test- involves the testing of each soldered
components/ auxiliary components if it is firmly attached.
e) Measuring test- Involve the testing of components/ auxiliary
components if it is truly connected to each component or if it is
outputting the designed output.

Resources:
✔ Finished power supply unit
✔ Measuring instrument (multimeter and/or oscilloscope.
✔ Schematic diagram
✔ Activity sheets

Procedure: Practice of the 5s principle must be observed at all times.

1. Check all connections if it conforms with the schematic diagram.


2. Visually inspect all mounting for visible damages possibly done
through mounting.
3. Test mounting of components by applying force in each component to
test if it is firmly attached to each connection.
4. With the use of multimeter (set for continuity/set in range x1), test the
plug. There should be no resistance flowing to the plug. The plug
going to the alligator switch must have no continuity when the switch
is off. If a shorted reading has happened, do not attempt to power up
the device and redo steps 1-3
5. If it passes in step 4, plug the device in the utility mains and turn the
device ON. Observed for any noise (hissing), smoke, or unnecessary
smell (burnt electronic) in the device. If nothing is observed proceed to
next step.
6. Measure the output voltage in each setting (5V, 9V, 12V, 15V). also
measure the input and output voltage of the transformer. And fill out
the form for future references.
Setting Measured
Voltage Position
range Voltage
1 5V DC
2 9V DC
DC
3 12V DC 50 V DC
4 15V DC

Secondary 12V 50 V AC
AC
Primary 220V 250 V AC

NOTE:
a) When using voltmeter always ensure that it is set in AC when
measuring AC and DC when measuring DC.
b) When measuring voltage set your gauge always higher that the
output. (e.g. when measuring 220VAC set your voltmeter in
250VAC, 5VDC to 15 VDC the voltmeter is set in 50VDC)
c) Ensure that proper PPE is use and observe safety when
measuring AC voltage.

7. Have an as-built documentation of your device by taking a picture of


the finished product. Keep the schematic diagram and fill out
input/output form for future reference (e.g. future repairs)

a) Visual test- all components are visually check for compliance with
the schematic diagram, and for some noticeable damage
b) Aging test- where the product is subjected to a series of test to
simulate years and years of use of the item.
c) Substitution test- if a device is not outputting the correct output
an electronic component is located and place with a known
working one to test if it will work.
d) Mechanical test- involves the testing of each soldered
components/ auxiliary components if it is firmly attached.
e) Measuring test- Involve the testing of components/ auxiliary
components if it is truly connected to each component or if it is
outputting the designed output.
