The story

Circuit Check was founded in 1978 as a spin-out of a printed circuit board drilling service bureau, "CircuitDrill." The initial product was test fixtures for bed of nails testers.

Over the following years, the company developed innovations for in-circuit test and functional test or FCT. One, the pneumatically actuated "clamshell" test fixture, electrically probes a circuit board from both sides.

The company also combined in-circuit test with functional test in the same test fixture in 2004, by developing (and patenting) the two-stage fixture having pins of two different lengths, and compressing to two different heights.
