Integrated circuit module fixing method for temperature cycling test

摘要

An apparatus to retain integrated circuit modules during the preparation for a cycling of temperature, during the cycling of temperature, and during the post-handling after the cycling of temperature, is described. The apparatus has a specimen basket to contain the integrated circuit modules, a plurality of specimen retaining rods coupled to the specimen basket to prevent the integrated circuit modules from movement within the basket, a plurality of integrated circuit module retaining means coupled to the specimen retaining rods to secure each of the integrated circuit modules within in the specimen basket, and a specimen securing rod retaining means to fasten each of the specimen retaining rods to the specimen basket.
