Abstract

The disclosure describes a test support module for supporting a test of at least one device under test (DUT). The test support module comprises a plurality of pogo pins configured to establish a connection to at least one of a load board or a probe card of an automated test equipment and at least one electronic support component configured to support a test of at least one DUT. The at least one electronic support component is electrically coupled to the pogo pins. The test support module is configured to be inserted into a pogo block frame of the automated test equipment to position the pogo pins in an alignment position to contact at least one of the load board or the probe card. The testing innovation is more efficient in view of customization, life duration of the components, high signal performance, tester channel resources, re-usability, and costs.
