How to Test PCB Traces with a TDR


At BitWise Laboratories, understanding How to Test PCB Traces with a TDR is essential for ensuring reliable signal performance. A Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) sends fast pulses through PCB traces to measure impedance and identify faults. Start by connecting the TDR probe to the trace, then launch the pulse to detect discontinuities like opens, shorts, or impedance mismatches. The reflected waveform helps locate issues with precise distance mapping. This method enables engineers to verify signal integrity quickly and accurately. BitWise Laboratories provides advanced tools to simplify TDR testing for electronics diagnostics and high-speed PCB design analysis.
