Pin block structure for containment and support of connector pins for use in automatic testing of a wide range of semiconductor structures having different connector pin arrangements

摘要

Pin block structure comprises a Pogo pin block with a number of Pogo holes, for insertion of Pogo pins. The Pogo holes of the pin block are designed so that inserted pins are inserted in a precise direction relative to a semiconductor test system. To achieve this the pins pass through joining holes that are designed to allow easy passage of Pogo pins and their connecting cables. Each joining hole allows a number of Pogo pins to pass through it, typically, in a cloverleaf shape, four.
