Abstract
A system of automatic control of integrated circuits, in which a wafer of integrated circuits (10) to be tested is supported by a sample carrier (61) and is electrically connected to a probe card (60). This system includes (a) a water-tight chamber (20) traversed by a flow or dry inert gas under excess pressure; (b) a mechanical assembly (40) of platforms (41, 42, 43, 44) for controlling the displacements of the wafer to be tested, with interpolation of a thermally insulated wedge (46) between the assembly of platforms and the sample carrier (61); and (c) a device (80) for cooling the sample carrier (61) internal of the system and including a container (81) of cooling liquid, a tube being prolonged in the cooling liquid to conduct the latter to a cooling cavity (63) internal of the sample carrier, and a device (64, 65) for exhausting the gaseous liquid appearing in the cooling cavity.
