Abstract
The specification describes methods for the manufacture of printed circuit cards which allow for final testing, including burn-in if required, of multiples of printed circuit cards as an integrated process panel prior to final packaging and singulation. This desired sequence of operations is made possible by the addition of arrays of test contacts at the edge of the integrated process panel where the test contacts can be accessed with an insertion test apparatus.
