Abstract
An electronic component testing device includes a first imaging device for imaging an upper-surface electrode of an electronic component before the electronic component is held by a holding part, a second imaging device for imaging a contact terminal provided to a testing head, a third imaging device for imaging a lower-surface electrode of the electronic component held by the holding part, and a fourth imaging device for imaging a testing socket. A control device controls the position adjustment part of the testing head to adjust the position of the holding part, and thereby controlling, based on images captured by the first and second imaging devices, a holding orientation when the holding part holds the electronic component, and controlling, based on the images captured by the third and fourth imaging devices, a holding orientation of the holding part in relation to the testing socket.
