Abstract
A testing apparatus includes a turntable, a driving device for rotating the turntable by a predetermined angle, and a plurality of pallets symmetrically fixed on the turntable around a center of rotation of the turntable. Each pallet holds a plurality of semiconductor devices and has electrode patterns for connection to leads of the semiconductor devices. A tester for testing the semiconductor devices is electrically connected with the electrode patterns of one of the pallets located at a first position in the rotation of the turntable by a connecting device. An exchanging device exchanges the semiconductor devices for new ones on one of the pallets located at a second position in the rotation of the turntable. A cover covers the turntable except around the second position. A heating device heats the inside of the cover to maintain the semiconductor devices held on the pallets in the cover at a high temperature.
