Configuring a test socket to electrically couple a semiconductor package to a test device includes preparing a test socket including a base material and a first conductive portion included in the base material. The first conductive portion may extend in a thickness direction of the base material. Configuring the test socket may include forming a second conductive portion including conductive ink on the first conductive pattern. The second conductive portion may be formed based on printing conductive ink on the first conductive portion. The configuring may include forming the second conductive portion to repair the test socket. The first conductive portion may be degraded such that a top surface of the first conductive portion includes a surface depression. The second conductive portion may fill the surface depression. The first and second conductive portions may be integral with each other.

Manufacturing method of test socket and test method for semiconductor package

A test socket is provided that includes a base material including an insulating elastic material and a conductive portion extending through the base material in a thickness direction of the base material, wherein the conductive portion includes a plurality of conductive particle structures arranged in the thickness direction of the base material, and each of the plurality of conductive particle structures includes a plurality of conductive particles having at least one insulating wire and/or at least one conductive wire extending from a surface of the conductive particle, bonded with a material having a functional group.
