Abstract
An adapter for a printed circuit board testing device, by means of which the test contacts located on the grid can be connected to test points of a printed circuit board to be tested that are located on and/or off grid means of test pins that are received in guide holes in the adapter and each have a pointed contacting section that is directed towards the respective contact point of the printed circuit board and projects from the adapter and an adjacent guidance section that is guided in the associated guide hole of the adapter, is to be designed so that even test pieces in which the test points are relatively close together and/or with large displacements from the grid can be tested. This is done by reducing the cross-section of the guidance section conically or in steps towards the contacting section, and that the cross-section of the guide bores is correspondingly reduced.
