Abstract: In order to carry out the electric property evaluation of internal wiring of an IC, the IC is attached to an IC socket, and terminals of the IC socket are connected with the external wiring via leads and coaxial connectors. The IC is directly in touch with a heating plate, for making the IC have a high temperature. The IC socket is provided with protrusions thereon, for forming a gap between the IC socket and the IC. On this account, it is possible to acquire an IC socket module in which the temperature of the IC is kept consistent when the evaluation of the internal wiring and wiring members of the IC is carried out at a high temperature.

Abstract: A stopping device for an automation module for a printed circuit board (PCB) wherein the PCB is stopped in a stopping position and then removed from the stopping position. A stopping means serves to stop in the stopping position a PCB which is fed on a conveyor of the automation module that can impart an acceleration to the PCB. A pressure means is provided to apply pressure on the PCB when it arrives in the vicinity of the stopping position so as to impart a deceleration to the PCB and avoid rebound thereof against the stopping means. The pressure means also applies pressure on the PCB when it is removed from the stopping position by the conveyor to enable the conveyor to impart an acceleration to the PCB.
