An electronic component handling apparatus handles a device under test (DUT). The electronic component handling apparatus includes: transfer units that each include a DUT transfer part that mounts the DUT on a first tray and removes the DUT from the first tray; contact units that each press the DUT mounted on the first tray against a socket disposed on a test head connected to a tester; and a tray transporter that transports the first tray between the contact units and the transfer units. Either or both of (i) at least one of the contact units and (ii) at least one of the transfer units are removably disposed on the electronic component handling apparatus.

Electronic component handling apparatus and electronic component testing apparatus

Provided is a handler apparatus that conveys a device under test to a test socket, including: a socket for adjustment which, prior to fitting of a device holder holding the device under test to the test socket, fits the device holder; a socket-for-adjustment position detecting section that detects a relative position of the device under test with respect to the socket for adjustment, in a state in which the device holder fits the socket for adjustment; an actuator that adjusts a position of the device under test on the device holder, based on the detected relative position of the device under test; and a conveyer that conveys the device holder, in which a position of the device under test has been adjusted, to fit the test socket.

Handler apparatus that conveys a device under test to a test socket and test apparatus including the handler apparatus

A handler apparatus adjusts a position of an actuator and enhances positional accuracy of a device under test. Provided is a handler apparatus that conveys a device under test to a test socket, including: an actuator that, prior to fitting of a device holder holding the device under test to the test socket, fits the device holder, and adjusts a position of the device under test on the device holder; and an actuator adjusting section that adjusts an amount of driving of the actuator by causing the actuator to fit an actuator fitting unit.

Handler apparatus, adjustment method of handler apparatus, and test apparatus

Provided is a handler apparatus that conveys a device under test to a test socket, including: a socket fitting unit which the test socket fits, prior to fitting of a device holder holding the device under test to the test socket; a test-socket position detecting section that detects a relative position of the socket fitting unit with respect to the test socket in a state in which the socket fitting unit fits the test socket; an actuator that adjusts a position of the device under test on the device holder, based on the detected relative position of the socket fitting unit; and a conveyer that conveys the device holder in which the position of the device under test has been adjusted, to fit the test socket.

Handler apparatus that conveys a device under test to a test socket and test apparatus that comprises the handler apparatus

A handler for conveying a plurality of devices under test to a socket for a test that can reduce a test time includes: a test section provided with the socket; a heat applying section into which a tray having a plurality of devices under test placed on its surface is conveyed and that controls the temperature of the devices under test to a predetermined test temperature and conveys the tray into the test section; a device image capturing section that in the heat applying section, captures images of the respective devices under test by moving with respect to the surface of the tray in two non-parallel directions of a first direction and a second direction; and a position adjusting section that adjusts the positions of the devices under test with respect to the socket based on the images of the devices under test captured by the device image capturing section.

Handler and test apparatus

A handler for conveying DUTs to a socket for a test that can reduce a test time includes: a test section including the socket; a heat applying section into which a tray having plural DUTs placed on its surface is conveyed and that controls the temperature of the DUTs to a predetermined test temperature and conveys the tray into the test section; and a device image capturing section that includes imaging elements arranged along a first direction the number of which is equal to DUTs arranged along the first direction and that in the heat applying section, captures images of the DUTs by moving the imaging elements relative to the surface of the tray in a second direction non-parallel with the first direction; and a position adjusting section that adjusts the positions of the DUTs relative to the socket based on their images captured by the device image capturing section.
