Abstract: A connector for the interconnection of electrical components, the connector component comprising a framing segment, a planar grid constructed from a plurality of contact support cores, rails, and conductive annular cylinders, wherein the conductive annular cylinders comprising a predetermined geometric configuration, the rails are formed with a plurality of holes that are spaced a predetermined distance apart from one another along length of the body of the rail, and the plurality of contact support cores longitudinally extending through the holes that are formed within the plurality rails and the conductive annular cylinders. The rails and conductive annular cylinders being positioned along the length of a contact support core so that a conductive annular cylinder is positioned in the spacing between rails, further, the plurality conductive annular cylinders physically protrude beyond the width of the bodies of the plurality rails to form a conductive contact area surface.

Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for controlling temperature of an integrated circuit in a chip tester is disclosed. Embodiments include supplying a chilled fluid to a cold plate at a first flowrate, where the first flowrate is associated with a first valve setting based on at least a desired temperature setpoint and an applied power. Embodiments may determine a change in applied power and modify the chilled fluid flowrate in response to a change in testing conditions to a second flowrate associated with a second valve setting associated with at least the desired temperature setpoint and the changed testing conditions. This feed forward loop may be supplemented by a feedback loop that includes modifying the energy supplied to a cold plate heater in response to a comparison of a current temperature and the temperature setpoint. The valve may be a proportional control valve or the like.
