What are Semiconductor Sockets?

Semiconductor sockets are specialized devices that interface the semiconductor device under test (DUT) to test equipment, enabling precise and efficient testing of semiconductor components. Sockets combine electrical, mechanical, and thermal aspects into a single assembly to streamline testing or validation of the DUT. Semiconductor sockets can be categorized as test sockets or burn-in sockets.

What is a Semiconductor Test Socket?

Test sockets are used to determine the functionality and performance of a semiconductor device. Test sockets can be used during the entire development process from initial semiconductor design to final production. Test socket features depend on specified test requirements.

What is a Semiconductor Burn-In Socket?

A Burn-in socket is an electro-mechanical device used to accelerate stress on an IC and create infant mortality, allowing the semiconductor company to eliminate weak ICs from the production population. This enables manufacturers to extend the minimum lifetime of final electronic assemblies by ensuring the reliability and quality of semiconductors before they are integrated into electronic devices. Burn-in testing increases overall reliability and reduces warranty claims of electronic products.
