Ribbon cables are used in conjunction with the Test Head Connector Box, the connector adapter, and the Test Clamp Fixture as it is the connection between the main electronic unit and the connection devices. Ribbon cables are integral to all of our Continuity Testers, LED Testers, and Contact Bounce Testers as they attach the connector apparatus to the main membrane switch tester.

DataSwitch Continuity Testers deliver the speed and ease of use required for a production-line environment, plus the versatility and accuracy needed for engineering research. 
The DataSwitch Life Cycle Tester will test switch keys individually at a rate of one million strokes in approximately 48 hours. The switch is placed under an electrical load of 5 Milliamps DC, and is checked twice during each test cycle: once for resistance level during the 'down' stroke, and once for shorts during the 'up' stroke. Dual counters store the number of good cycles as well as the number of bad cycles (or misses). 
The DataSwitch Contact Bounce Tester measures both make and break contact bounce times on any switch with reliability and accuracy beyond that of an oscilloscope. This tester measures and displays bounce times from 0.01 milliseconds to 99.9 milliseconds. Longer bounce times are indicated by an error light.
The DataSwitch LED Tester accurately tests embedded LEDs for function and correct polarity with minimal set-up time. It will handle membrane switches with tails of up to 25 trace lines.
