Performance Criteria
Element: Inspect multi-layer printed circuit boards and associated components
Interpret required maintenance documentation, including component defect reports and match parts and serial numbers
Prepare work area and circuit board assemblies in accordance with standard enterprise procedures to allow for effective detailed inspection of all substrate, circuit tracks, edge connectors and attached components, taking into account any static discharge procedures
Visually or physically inspect circuit board assemblies for physical integrity of substrate, circuit tracks, edge connectors and attached components in accordance with maintenance documentation while observing all relevant work health and safety (WHS) requirements
Establish modification status to assist in determining repair requirements
Identify and report defects in accordance with standard enterprise procedures
Element: Test or adjust multi-layer printed circuit boards and associated components
Prepare and connect circuit board assemblies to the appropriate test facility in accordance with approved procedures, or prepare and connect circuit board assemblies in situ to allow required test procedures to be performed
Perform functional testing on circuit board assemblies for evidence of serviceability or malfunction in accordance with normal trade practice and maintenance documentation
Electronically or physically adjust or align circuit board assemblies, attached hardware and electronic components in accordance with maintenance manuals or other prescribed procedures
Element: Troubleshoot multi-layer printed circuit cards and associated components
Use required maintenance documentation, physical inspection and test results to assist in fault determination
Troubleshoot using maintenance manual fault diagnosis guides, logical processes and test equipment
Locate component faults and identify and record causes of faults in required maintenance documentation
Determine required for rectification of faults
Element: Dismantle multi-layer printed circuit cards and associated components
Remove conformal or protective coatings from the circuit board assembly to the extent required to effect necessary repairs and in accordance with maintenance manuals, industry or enterprise standards as applicable
Observe WHS requirements at all times during maintenance procedures and use required material safety data sheets (MSDSs) and personal protective equipment (PPE)
Dismantle circuit board assembly to the extent necessary to allow repair of all identified faults
Tag and dispatch parts for processing in accordance with specified procedures
Package and store parts for retention and refitment in accordance with standard enterprise procedures to avoid physical and electrostatic damage
Pack and process parts for disposal in accordance with statutory requirements pertaining to dangerous goods
Element: Assemble multi-layer printed circuit boards and associated components
Collect parts removed for access and replacement parts, ensuring appropriate modification status, component tolerances and assembly configuration is maintained
Replace conformal or protective coatings to the required standard of the equipment manufacturer or industry standard
Ensure rework techniques are in accordance with industry approved procedures, and observe required WHS precautions, including use of MSDS and PPE
Assemble printed circuit board and associated components in accordance with maintenance manuals, and ensure all electrical joints meet the required standard of the equipment manufacturer or industry standard
Rework circuit substrate material, circuit tracks, edge connectors and through-hole eyelets as required to restore printed circuit board to a serviceable condition
Submission Requirements

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)
Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
