An electronic component handling apparatus handles a device under test (DUT). The electronic component handling apparatus includes: a set plate that holds a DUT container including a plurality of pockets each of which accommodates the DUT; a sensor that acquires three-dimensional shape data of the DUT container; and a processor that corrects the shape data based on an inclination of the set plate, extracts a height and an inclination of a predetermined region corresponding to the DUT in a first pocket among the pockets, from the shape data corrected by the processor, and determines an accommodation state of the DUT in the first pocket based on an extraction result obtained by the processor.

Electronic component handling apparatus and electronic component testing apparatus

Socket for electronic device testing apparatus

To electrically connect a device under test mounted on a device holder and a socket of a test apparatus with accuracy. Provided is a device holder that retains a device, the device holder including: an inner unit that mounts the device; and an outer unit that retains the inner unit such that the inner unit is relatively movable, wherein the inner unit switches whether to lock the outer unit relative to the inner unit or to release the lock. Also, the inner unit and the outer unit of the device holder are provided.

Device holder, inner unit, outer unit, and tray

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

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 to the test socket, fits the device holder, and adjusts a position of the device under test on the device holder; 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, where the device holder includes: an inner unit to mount the device under test; an outer unit to retain the inner unit to be movable; and a release button to release a lock of movement of the inner unit, in response to being pressed from a side to which the device under test is mounted, and the actuator sets the inner unit to be movable by pressing the release button and adjusts a position of the inner unit.

Handler apparatus, device holder, and test apparatus

Socket for an electronic device testing 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 fixture unit assuredly fits a fixed unit including a gap portion including a first wall surface and a second wall surface opposing each other. Provided are a fixture unit and a fixture apparatus including a fitting pin fitting a gap portion of a fixed unit, the gap portion including a first wall surface and a second wall surface opposing each other, where the fitting pin includes: a fixed pin inserted to the gap portion to contact the first wall surface; a moving pin inserted to the gap portion to be pressed on the second wall surface; and a base to which the fixed pin is fixed, and the moving pin includes a bottom portion in an arc form with a center being a central axis of movement, and the bottom portion fitting slidably with respect to a concave portion provided for the base.

Fixture unit, fixture apparatus, handler apparatus, and test apparatus

Provided is a handler apparatus which can connect devices under test to sockets of a test apparatus quickly and with low power consumption. The handler apparatus for conveying and connecting a plurality of devices under test to a plurality of sockets provided on a test head of a test apparatus, includes a position adjusting section that moves each of the plurality of devices under test on the test tray and adjusts the position thereof to a corresponding one of the plurality of sockets; and a device mounting section that mounts the plurality of devices under test whose positions have been adjusted by the position adjusting section, to the plurality of sockets.
