Description
FEATURES
Low resistance testing using dual independent Aries Kelvin spring-probe technology per device pad for testing of MLF, QFN, LGA and other leadless devices
Socket is easily mounted and removed to & from the test board due to solderless pressure mount compression Spring-Probes which, are accurately located by two molded plastic alignment pins and mounted with four stainless steel screws
The Au over Ni plated compression Spring-Probes leave very small witness marks on the bottom surface of the device pads
Small overall socket size/profile allows max. number of sockets per test board, while being operator-friendly
Kelvin Test Socket Contact System is available for any Aries CSP and Center Probe Test Sockets
Pressure pad compression spring provides proper force against device and allows for height variations in device thickness
Probe blade edge tip for cutting through solder oxide layers
Signal path during test only 0.082 [2.08]
