Integrated circuit load board and method having on-board test circuit

摘要

An integrated circuit load board includes a substrate on which a plurality of integrated circuit sockets and an integrated test circuit are mounted. The integrated test circuit generates test signals that are applied to the integrated circuit sockets. The integrated test circuit also receives response signals from the integrated circuit sockets indicative of the manner in which integrated circuits in the sockets responded to the test signals. Several of the load boards may be placed on a test head that may be coupled to a host.
