Yamaichi’s 0.35mm Ultra Fine Pitch Test Contactor for Semiconductor Evaluation, HAST, HTOL and Failure Analysis

No Soldering Through Compression Mount Technology (CMT)

Through Yamaichi Electronics´ experience in developing test and burn-in sockets, the opening and closing mechanism is released for easy handling. The Test Contactor is designed with compression mount technology, therefore no soldering is needed. Selected materials like air craft aluminum, PEEK and ceramic PEEK make the socket robust.

This offers the customer a large variety of TCs which can be used in any custom application:

• Evaluation: the first silicon has been received to verify the functionality
• HAST / HTOL / ELFR: Reliability and stress tests for pre-qualification and during silicon production
• ESD / Latch-Up Test: Performed as part of product qualification
• Failure Analysis: finding device malfunctions during development, production and field

Reliable Probe Pin Technology

To fulfil these high requirements, Yamaichi Electronics has a large portfolio of probe pins. The low inductance probe pin for the 0.35mm pitch has a length in working position of only 1.7mm. All pins have been electrical qualified and the standard data are available on request. This helps to select the best performing pin for our customers’ individual needs.
