Abstract: Provided is a socket for inspection that can correct inclination of a terminal in contact with a device under inspection to stabilize the terminal-to-electrode contact. The socket includes: a contact terminal having a barrel with a flange, a device side terminal, a test board side terminal, and a spring; a housing having a stepped hole through which the contact terminal is inserted and in which a step that abuts against the flange is axially formed; and a movable pedestal provided so as to move closer to and away from the housing and having a receiving hole through which a distal end side of the device side terminal projecting from the barrel is inserted and which receives an electrode of the device. A guide part whose inner diameter is substantially the same as the outer diameter of a projecting portion of the device side terminal is formed in the receiving hole.

Abstract: In variants, an automatically-identifiable temperature probe can include: a probe body, one or more sensors, a connector, and/or any other suitable components. In variants, the method for temperature determination can include: determining a set of electrical signals, determining a temperature probe type based on the set of electrical signals, determining a sensor resolution model based on the temperature probe type, and determining a set of final temperature estimates based on the set of electrical signals and the sensor resolution model.
