The flying probe tester is a fixtureless tester that utilizes several moving arms with test probes to access the test points on a PC board. Typically, the PC board is placed upside down in the tester, and multiple arms with test probes move across the bottom side of the board, touching down on test points and taking measurements. The biggest advantage of this test is that it does not usually require a test fixture. The greatest limitation is that it has long test times due to the arm movements.
