<p>A strip, leadframe or panel type handling device for use in testing semiconductor components. The handling device has a thermal plate assembly with embedded electrical resistance heaters. The heaters are separately controlled in zones to provide uniform temperature across the plate for elevated temperature testing. Cooling channels are formed in the plate. Intermingling channels are provided to allow different types of cooling fluids to be used to cool at different rates or hold a cold temperature at different levels. The cooling channels can likewise be provided in zones to promote temperature uniformity. Vacuum channels are used to hold the semiconductor parts under test in close contact with the thermal plate.</p> |
