By mounting a semiconductor carrier tray in an accommodating portion of a housing of a burn-in board and then closing a lid member, a large number of semiconductors can be placed on the burn-in board. By putting the burn-in board in this state into a burn-in tester, the plurality of semiconductors can be collectively tested. Accordingly, the semiconductors and sockets for holding the semiconductors need not be provided in the one-to-one relation, whereby a larger number of semiconductors can be tested at once.

A first cavity in a holder is provided with a plurality of spiral contactors and a thermosetting adhesive member. In a state where a first bare chip is mounted in the first cavity and spherical contactors on the first bare chip are pressed against the plurality of spiral contactors, various tests are performed. If the result of the test is pass, the holder is heated so that the adhesive member becomes hard and rigid by being heated. This can perform securing while a good connection between the first bare chip and the holder is maintained. If the result of the test is fail, only the first bare chip is removed and replaced with a new bare chip.

An inter-member connection structure is provided. The inter-member connection structure has a contact-attached sheet having spiral contactors and a flexible printed circuit having electrode portions thereon that face each other. An elastic member and a fixed member are installed on the contact-attached sheet, and both ends of the fixed member are fixed on the mother board by mounting members. As an elastic force is applied to the spiral contactor from the elastic member, the spiral contactor appropriately comes in contact with the electrode portion, and the contact-attached sheet and the flexible printed circuit can be securely supported on the board. A method of manufacturing an inter-member connection structure is provided.

Inter-member connection structure, method of manufacturing the same, and electronic apparatus including inter-member connection structure

An upper side and a lower side of a coupling member are provided with spiral contacts including elastic deforming portions. The elastic deforming portions are made contact with connectors of an IC package. Thereby, contact pressure on the IC package can be reduced. Further, the coupling member is replaceably positioned with respect to a substrate. Accordingly, only the coupling member can be replaced as needed, and therefore, maintenance fee can be reduced.

Test apparatus and method

A substrate is formed with a plurality of spiral contactors on an upper surface serving as a first surface and a plurality of connecting terminals on a lower surface serving as a second surface. Since the spiral contactors are arranged in a matrix on the upper surface serving as the first surface, a lot of spiral contactors can be provided on the substrate of the present invention, and a mount area can be enlarged, and the size of the connector can be decreased.

Substrate having spiral contactors

A compact, simple connection unit for mounting an electronic component to a substrate includes connectors having one or more arm portions. The connectors are provided with internal stress, which allows the arm portions to grip the electronic component so that the electronic component can be firmly fixed to the substrate.

In order to be able to prevent devices from being degraded in high frequency property and to prevent damages to respective junction terminals, thereby achieving lengthening of the junction terminals in service life, a connector device comprising a plurality of substantially semi-spherical junction terminals arranged on one surface of a board, substantially semi-spherical junction terminals arranged in positions on the other surface of the board, corresponding to those positions, in which the respective junction terminals are arranged, to be conducted to the respective junction terminals, and a plurality of contactors corresponding to the respective junction terminals, and wherein the respective contactors comprise a through-hole and contact pieces arranged in the through-hole, and each of the junction terminals are inserted into the through-hole whereby a surface of each of the junction terminals is brought into contact with surfaces of the contact pieces.

Detachable connector device

A cordinate input device is provided in which z-coordinate of an image object and a command to scroll the image can be inputted, a positive manipulation feeling can be obtained when changing scrolling speed (the amount of scrolling) of an image, and an accurate scrolling adjustment is enabled. The coordinate input device includes a casing, an (x, y) coordinate information input unit 6, push-button switches 7 and 8 for inputting the (x, y) coordinate information detected by the (x, y) coordinate information input unit 6, and an input manipulation unit for inputting z-coordinate information and image scrolling information in addition to the (x, y) coordinate information. The input manipulation unit includes a jog/shuttle switch 9 having a jog dial and a shuttle dial coaxially disposed.

Coordinate input device capable of inputting z-coordinate of image object

The electrical equipment of the present invention is operated such that the ON operating member for the primary power supply supplying circuit is manually operated, the switch device S is turned ON and when a supplying of electrical power for the primary power supply supplying circuit is shut off, the circuit for the control system is operated and upon performing a predetermined security processing, the driving source is driven, the OFF operating member is automatically operated, the switch device S is automatically turned OFF and supplying of an electrical power to the primary power supply supplying circuit is automatically shut off, so that it is possible to perform an appropriate processing before shutting off the primary power supply supplying circuit and thus it is also possible to provide electrical equipment showing a high safety characteristic.

Electrical equipment having energy saving mode capable of shutting off supplying of voltage to primary power supply supplying circuit under no use thereof

An electronic device having an auto-OFF function is disclosed in which a switch unit having an auto-OFF function and capable of being operated manually and automatically is connected to a primary circuit in a power control circuit, the switch unit S,being normally turned auto-OFF with a signal provided from a control system circuit to cut off the supply of electric power to the primary circuit, thereby permitting a stand-by electric power to be nil, and if a trouble should occur in the control system circuit to an inoperable extent of the switch, the switch can be turned OFF manually.

Electronic device having auto-off or auto-on/off function

In the electric apparatus of the present invention, when the supply of electric power to a primary power supply circuit is started, a check is made to see if the apparatus has been turned ON by operation of a switch device S, by collation with the contents stored in a memory (not shown), and in accordance with the result of the collation a control system circuit makes control to continue or interrupt the supply of electric power to the primary power supply circuit. Therefore, in the case of a rise from an abnormal condition such as power failure, the supply of electric power to the primary power supply circuit can be interrupted rapidly. Thus, whether a trouble has occurred or not during power failure can be checked before resuming the operation and the occurrence of a danger can be prevented thereby.
