MT9510

Test handlers move semiconductor devices between media, present each device to the electrical interface, and sort devices after test according to the test outcome. Pick-and-place handlers are used for packaged parts rather than wafers, and they form part of back-end electrical test operations between package handling and final device disposition.

The MT9510 XP supports short-contact ambient and short-contact tri-temp test using plunge-to-board contacting. The MT9510 XP uses a flat vertical contact site. The MT9510 XP supports standard, high-frequency, and Kelvin contacting. The MT9510 XP supports automatic tray module and single-tray output versions.^[4]

Package test takes place after assembly and before final device release, and the broader package-test flow follows wafer test and package assembly. A test handler such as the MT9510 fits at the packaged-device electrical test stage, where devices are inserted into a contactor for automated test and then sorted based on results.^[5]

Packaged-device handlers are used where singulated semiconductor parts need repeatable electrical contact under controlled handling and thermal conditions. Such tools are common in production test for logic, analog, power, sensor, and mixed-signal packages, especially when package style or test temperature must be managed by the handler.
