ANTENNA-IN-PACKAGE PRODUCTION TEST
A test assembly for testing an antenna-in-package (AiP) device includes a socket over a circuit board, where the socket includes an opening for receiving the AiP device; a plunger configured to move along sidewalls of the opening, where during testing of the AiP device, the plunger is configured to cause the AiP device to be pressed towards the circuit board such that the AiP device is operatively coupled to the circuit board via input/output connections of the AiP device and of the circuit board; and a loadboard disposed within the socket and between the plunger and the AiP device, where the loadboard includes a coupling structure configured to be electromagnetically coupled to a transmit antenna and to a receive antenna of the AiP device, so that testing signals transmitted by the transmit antenna are conveyed to the receive antenna externally relative to the AiP device through the coupling structure.
Modular pressing device capable of generating stage downward forces and electronic device testing apparatus comprising the same
A modular pressing device capable of generating stage downward forces is provided. The modular pressing device comprises a non-exchangeable pressing module and an exchangeable pressing module. The non-exchangeable pressing module includes a first downward force generating unit. The exchangeable pressing module includes a second downward force generating unit. The first downward force generating unit applies a first downward force to at least one of a testing seat and an electronic device through the exchangeable pressing module. The second downward force generating unit applies a second downward force to the electronic device. Thereby, the modular pressing device is capable to generate two different downward forces to reduce the downward surge force. In addition, as the exchangeable pressing module is worn, the exchangeable pressing module can be replaced quickly such that the maintenance cost can be effectively reduced and the stability of the apparatus can be enhanced.
Semiconductor device handler with chuck clamp interlock
An apparatus includes a clip mounted to a base that pivots about a first pivot axis between a first position and a second position. An abutment surface of the clip is spaced from a path of a carrier structure when the clip is in the first position. The abutment surface engages the carrier structure to secure the carrier structure and a device to the apparatus when the clip is in the second clip position. A cam includes a first surface that pivots the clip to the first clip position when the cam is in the first cam position. The cam includes a second surface that extends into an opening of the base when the cam is in a first position to allow a stop plate pin to engage the cam to rotate the cam from the first position to a second position when a stop plate is installed.
