Question 38Electricity/Electronics - 1st Asst/Chief70% to pass
When troubleshooting a printed circuit board, one technique that can be used is swapping the suspected damaged board with a new board. If a board extraction system is not available, what technique should be used to remove the suspected damaged board that is plugged into its edge card connector horizontally?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Handle the board at the corner edges and apply pressure while you rock it back and forth left to right gently while pulling.
This technique is recommended when removing a printed circuit board from a horizontal edge card connector without the use of a board extraction system. Grasping the board at the corner edges and rocking it gently left to right while applying pressure and pulling helps to gradually disengage the board from the connector without damaging the board or the connector. This controlled, gentle rocking motion is preferred over rapid removal or excessive force, which could potentially cause damage.
The other options are not recommended - option A involves rocking the board up and down, which is less effective for a horizontal connector, option C involves rocking up and down which is also less effective, and option D calls for a rapid, continuous motion which could lead to damage.
