Patent number: 9658283Abstract: A radiator module system for automatic test equipment, including a test arm and a closed-loop circulating cooling device disposed on the test arm. The test arm includes a test head, and an internal channel is formed within and passing through the test head. The closed-loop circulating cooling device includes an inlet and an outlet, respectively connected to the internal channel; a conduit connecting the inlet and the outlet, such that the conduit and the internal channel form a closed-loop circulating channel in which a working fluid flows; a cooling device in contact with the conduit, configured to perform heat dissipation to the working fluid flowing within the conduit; and a driving source configured to drive the working fluid to flow within the closed-loop circulating channel. The working fluid is driven by the driving source to flow within the closed-loop circulating channel to perform heat dissipation.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2015Date of Patent: May 23, 2017Assignee: CHROMA ATE INC.Inventors: Xin-Yi Wu, Jui-Che Chou, Meng-Kung Lu, Chin-Yi Ou Yang

Patent number: 9638740Abstract: A test system with rotational test arms for testing semiconductor components includes a transport device, a first test socket, a second test socket, a first test arm, and a second test arm. The first test socket and the second test socket are electrically connected to different test signals respectively and correspond to the first test arm and the second test arm. The first test arm and the second test arm test arms operate rotationally to carry and place the semiconductor components to the transport device, the first test socket and the second test socket, so the test time is improved.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2013Date of Patent: May 2, 2017Assignee: CHROMA ATE INC.Inventors: Chien-Ming Chen, Herbert Tsai, Chin-Yi Ou Yang

Patent number: 9470749Abstract: A test apparatus includes a test site, a buffer carrying device, a transport carrying device, a handling mechanism and a dry air flow guide mechanism. The test site performs a test procedure on the objects. The buffer carrying device is disposed close to a side of the test site, holds the objects and performs a temperature conditioning process. The transport carrying device is disposed close to another side of the test site, moves back and forth along a transporting direction, transports the objects into and out of the test site, and heats up the objects. The handling mechanism carries the objects among the buffer carrying device, the test site and the transport carrying device. The dry air flow guide mechanism guides a dry air to surround the test site, the buffer carrying device, the transport carrying device and the handling mechanism and generates a dry environment to prevent dew condensation.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2013Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: CHROMA ATE INC.Inventors: Xin-Yi Wu, Hsuan-Jen Shen, Chien-Ming Chen, Chin-Yi Ou Yang

Patent number: 9121898Abstract: A radiator module system for automatic test equipment, wherein the automatic test equipment comprises at least one test arm, with the front end of the test arm being configured with a test head, and a closed-loop circulating cooling device is installed on the test arm. The closed-loop circulating cooling device includes a conduit which is in contact with the cooling device, internally contains an working fluid and is connected to the test head, a cooling device, a set of fans and a driving source for driving the working fluid. The closed-loop circulating cooling device can operate to circulate and exchange heat energy generated by a device under test (DUT) tightly stressed by downward pressure applied with the test arm, and brings up airflows by means of the fans to perform heat exchange on the cooling device thereby dissipating the generated heat energy.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2012Date of Patent: September 1, 2015Assignee: CHROMA ATE INC.Inventors: Xin-Yi Wu, Jui-Che Chou, Meng-Kung Lu, Chin-Yi Ou Yang

Publication number: 20130113509Abstract: A temperature control system for IC tester, comprising: a test socket; a compressing device including a heat exchanger and a thermoelectric cooler (TEC); and a test head having a temperature sensor. The test head is configured at the front end of the compressing device such that, upon placing at least one device under test (DUT) onto the test socket, the test head coerces tightly one of the DUTs through downward pressure from the compressing device thereby allowing the temperature sensor to detect the surface temperature of the DUT to obtain a temperature signal, and then feed such a temperature signal back to a control processing unit for operations to generate a linear control signal thus that, through the control of the linear control signal, the heat absorption and heat discharge functions of the TEC are enabled to further control the temperature of the DUT within a determined range.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2012Publication date: May 9, 2013Inventors: Xin-Yi WU, Jui-Che Chou, Meng-Kung Lu, Chin-Yi Ou Yang
