ABSTRACT:
A test fixture for printed circuit boards wherein the circuit board being tested is clamped to a vacuum actuated diaphragm plate by the same vacuum that actuates the diaphragm plate. The vacuum is automatically applied to both the diaphragm plate and the clamp means when the cover on the test fixture is closed. A bridge extends over, and is in clamping contact, with the circuit board. The bridge is supported from platens in vacuum chambers on the upper side of the diaphragm plate.
