  • Patent number: 11953519
    Abstract: An example test system includes packs. The packs include test sockets for testing devices under test (DUTs) and at least some test electronics for performing tests on the DUTs in the test sockets. Different packs are configured to have different configurations. The different configurations include at least different numbers of test sockets arranged at different pitches.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11899042
    Abstract: An example test system includes test sites comprising test sockets for testing devices under test (DUTs) and pickers for picking DUTs from the test sockets or placing the DUTs into the test sockets. Each picker may include a picker head for holding a DUT. The test system also includes a gantry on which the pickers are mounted. The gantry may be configured to move the pickers relative to the test sites to position the pickers for picking the DUTs from the test sockets or placing the DUTs into the test sockets. The test sockets are arranged in at least one array that is accessible to the pickers on the gantry.

  • Patent number: 11867749
    Abstract: An example test system includes test sites that include sockets for testing devices under test (DUTs), pickers for picking DUTs from the sockets or placing the DUTs in the sockets, and a gantry on which the pickers are mounted. The gantry is configured to move the pickers relative to the test sites to position the pickers for picking the DUTs from the sockets or placing the DUTs into the sockets. The test system also includes one or more LASER range finders mounted on the gantry for movement over the DUTs in the sockets and in conjunction with movement of the pickers. A LASER range finder among the one or more LASER rangefinders mounted on the gantry is configured to detect a distance to a DUT placed into a socket.

  • Patent number: 11353375
    Abstract: An example test system includes a tray to hold devices, where the devices include devices to be tested or devices that have been tested; a motor that is controllable to cause vibrations; and a component that couples the motor to the tray to cause the tray to vibrate in response to the vibrations of the motor.

  • Patent number: 11226390
    Abstract: An example method, such as a calibration method, includes: determining a geometry of an arrangement of cells that is perceived by a robot configured to move devices into, and out of, the cells; determining an expected location of a target cell among the cells; determining an offset from the expected location that is based on the geometry that is perceived by the robot; and calibrating the robot based on the offset.
