Abstract
There is disclosed herein an apparatus for unloading IC packages from sockets on a burn-in board according to predetermined performance grades. The IC packages are displaced from the sockets by inserting tools through passageways extending through the burn-in board and socket to contact the underside of the IC package and push the IC package from its socket. Sorting is accomplished by collecting the displaced IC packages of a particular grade and storing them separate from all other IC packages.
