Abstract

An example test system includes test sites for testing devices under test (DUTs), where the test sites include a test site configured to hold a DUT for testing. The test system includes a thermal control system to control a temperature of the DUT separately from control over temperatures of other DUTs in other test sites. The thermal control system includes a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) and a structure that is thermally conductive. The TEC is in thermal communication with the DUT to control the temperature of the DUT by transferring heat between the DUT and the structure.
