Socketless/boardless test interposer card

摘要

An interposer card used during qualification tests on integrated circuit packages is disclosed that eliminates the need for sockets and custom boards. The interposer card includes pads for mounting the I/Os of a test package; edge card connectors for connecting the interposer card directly to a test board and for performing bias testing on the test package; and pads for replicating the test package I/Os for connecting the interposer card to an automated electrical testing (ATE) system for performing ATE tests on the test package.
