Dr.-Ing. Sorin Liviu Jurj
AI & Sustainability Researcher

Sorin received his Ph.D. (Dr.-Ing.) degree in Computers and Information Technology from Politehnica University of Timisoara, Romania, in 2020, where his research focused on powering and evaluating Deep Learning-based systems using green energy. Following that, he worked for two years as a Postdoctoral Researcher with the German Aerospace Center (DLR e.V.) Institute of Systems Engineering for Future Mobility, Germany, where his research focused on developing methods for integrating knowledge into Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms used in autonomous vehicles in order to increase their safety and sustainability. Currently, he is a Researcher in Neuromorphic Computing at the Chemnitz University of Technology, Germany, where his research focuses on designing neuromorphic 3D circuits using printed memristors.

Hello everyone,

Thank you for visiting our fpict.ro website!

We created this website with the intention of increasing the knowledge in Test Engineering Education of all people around the world interested in this fascinating domain. More than that, we wanted to increase the practical skills related to using a Flying Probe-inspired In-Circuit Tester and show everyone:

  • which are the most popular hardware platforms available in the world that can be tested with it
  • which are the most important test points and their location on several PCBs
  • what are the optimal operating voltage values of test points found on several PCBs
  • how to measure the distance between the test pins found on PCBs with the help of a digital caliper
  • what good and faulty voltage values look like for different PCBs
  • how a FPICT procedure looks in practice
  • …and more

We hope you enjoy it and wish you all a wonderful FPICT experience!
