Abstract
A compliant ground block for a testing system for testing integrated circuit devices is disclosed. The compliant ground block includes a plurality of electrically conductive blade pairs in a side by side generally parallel relationship. Blades in the plurality of blade pairs are configured to be longitudinally slidable with respect to each other. The block also includes at least one elastomer configured to retain the plurality of blade pairs. Each blade pair of the plurality of blade pairs includes a first blade (or a first blade assembly) and a second blade. The first blade (or the first blade assembly) and the second blade are configured to generate scrubbing motions when the device under test is being pressed down on the compliant ground block or is being released from the compliant ground block.
