Patent attributes
A module for a tester for the testing of circuit boards is described. Such testers have a basic grid on which an adapter and/or a translator may be arranged in order to connect contact points of the basic grid with circuit board test points of a circuit board to be tested. The module comprises a support plate and a contact board. The contact board is formed by a rigid circuit board section which is described as the basic grid element, and at least one flexible circuit board section. Provided on the basic grid element are contact points which each form part of the contact points of the basic grid. The basic grid element is mounted at an end face of the support plate, and the flexible circuit board section is bent in such a way that at least part of the other section of the contact board is parallel to the support plate. Each of the contact points of the basic grid element is in electrical contact with conductor paths running in the contact board and extending from the basic grid element into the flexible circuit board section.
