[0033] It can be understood that the chip testing equipment of this embodiment can be used to perform high and low temperature tests on the chip.

The layout is reasonable, further improving the space utilization of the chip detection equipment.
[0035] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the chip testing device further includes a testing mechanism 40 , which is disposed on the base 10 and corresponds to the testing base 32 . The testing mechanism 40 is used to perform a performance test on the chip to be tested in the testing base 32 at the testing position.
[0036] Specifically, the test mechanism 40 of the chip testing equipment is arranged on the seat 10, and the test mechanism 40 can be arranged on the transport path of the second transport mechanism 31 to correspond to the detection seat 32.

[0037] Optionally, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a third embodiment of a chip testing device provided by the present application, Figure 4 yes Figure 3 The enlarged schematic diagram of the structure A in FIG. Among them, it can be understood that, Figure 4 The A structure in Figure 3 The illustration of the power mechanism 33 revealed after the outer shell of one of the detection bases 32 is disassembled is only an example structure, and the detection bases 32 in other illustrations may also include the following: Figure 4 The power mechanism 33 disclosed in the embodiment, or the power mechanism 33 is not provided, is not specifically limited here.
[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the detection unit 30 includes a power mechanism 33, which is arranged on the detection seat 32. The power mechanism 33 is used to drive the detection seat 32 to move along a first direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the extension direction X of the first conveying mechanism 21 and the second conveying mechanism 31 respectively. The detection seat 32 is located at the test position, and the test mechanism 40 is located above the detection seat 32. The power mechanism 33 is used to drive the detection seat 32 to move upward so that the test probe of the test mechanism 40 contacts the chip to be tested on the detection seat 32.
[0039] Specifically, the power mechanism 33 of the chip testing equipment is used to drive the detection seat 32 to move up and down along a first direction, and the first direction is parallel to the gravity direction. When the second conveying mechanism 31 moves the detection seat 32 to the test position, the test mechanism 40 is arranged on the seat body 10 and is located above the detection seat 32. The power mechanism 33 is used to drive the detection seat 32 to move upward, so that the test probe of the test mechanism 40 contacts the chip to be tested on the detection seat 32, and the test probe contacts the chip to be tested with pressure, so as to provide a suitable test environment for the chip to be tested to perform performance testing.
[0040] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, the power mechanism 33 includes a bearing member 331, a first driving member (not shown) and an encoder. The detection seat 32 is arranged on the bearing member 331, and the bearing member 331 is connected to the first driving member. The first driving member is used to drive the bearing member 331 to rotate so that the detection seat 32 moves up. The encoder is spaced apart from the detection seat 32, and the encoder is used to detect the moving distance of the detection seat 32.
[0041] Specifically, the first driving member can be a device that can output kinetic energy, such as a motor or an electric cylinder. In a possible implementation, the bearing member 331 can include a bearing and a rotating shaft; the bearing is connected to the first driving member, the rotating shaft can be fixed on the seat body 10, and the first driving member drives the bearing to rotate around the rotating shaft, so that the bearing rises relative to the seat body 10 and drives the detection seat 32 to move up, or the rotating shaft is connected to the detection seat 32 and the first driving member respectively, the bearing is fixed on the seat body 10, and the first driving member drives the rotating shaft to rotate relative to the bearing, so that the rotating shaft rises relative to the seat body 10 and drives the detection seat 32 to move up.
[0042] The encoder is used to detect the distance or height of the upward movement of the bearing member 331 and convert the detection result into an electrical signal. Specifically, the power mechanism 33 may also include a power control circuit, which is connected to the encoder and the first drive member respectively, and the power control circuit is used to perform power control on the first drive member so that the first drive member drives the bearing member 331 to rotate and moves the detection seat 32 upward. In this process, the power control circuit synchronously obtains the electrical signal of the moving distance of the detection seat 32 detected by the encoder, so as to judge whether the detection seat 32 is moved up to the specified position based on the electrical signal, and realize the control and monitoring of the rotation accuracy of the bearing member 331. In the above manner, the chip testing equipment of the present application can improve the accuracy of the upward movement of the detection seat 32, so as to ensure the accuracy of the contact position between the chip to be tested and the testing mechanism 40 after the detection seat 32 is moved up, so as to reduce the accident of the chip to be tested being squeezed and damaged due to the excessive upward movement of the chip to be tested, and reduce the accident of the test of the chip to be tested being invalid due to the insufficient upward movement of the chip to be tested.
[0043] The encoder of this embodiment is a magnetic encoder or a photoelectric encoder.
[0044] Specifically, the first driving member may include a rotating motor, which is connected to the bearing member 331 through a screw rod, so as to drive the bearing member 331 to rotate and rise through the screw rod. In one embodiment, the power mechanism 33 may also include a deflector, which is used to detect the rotation angle of the bearing member 331, and the magnetic encoder is used to convert the displacement of the rotation angle on the bearing member 331 into a pulse or digital signal through magneto-electric conversion. For example, the rotation angle of the bearing member 331 can be detected through a Hall code disk (magnetic ring) and a Hall element, and then the moving distance of the detection seat 32 can be calculated or converted.
[0045] In another embodiment, the moving distance of the detection seat 32 can also be directly detected through the photoelectric conversion of the photoelectric encoder to convert the detected mechanical displacement into a pulse or digital signal. For example, the moving distance of the detection seat 32 can be detected by the change of the transparent and opaque lines on the grating disk, thereby improving the accuracy of the upward movement of the detection seat 32, thereby improving the docking accuracy between the chip to be tested and the test mechanism 40, and improving the test effect of the chip testing equipment.
[0046] Optionally, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 yes Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the detection unit. Figure 5 As shown, the detection unit 30 at least includes a first group of second conveying mechanisms 31, a second group of second conveying mechanisms 31, a first detection seat 321 and a second detection seat 322. The first detection seat 321 is slidably connected to the first group of second conveying mechanisms 31, and the second detection seat 322 is slidably connected to the second group of second conveying mechanisms 31. The first group of second conveying mechanisms 31 is used to transport the first chip of the first detection seat 321 to the first test position, and the second group of second conveying mechanisms 31 is used to transport the second chip of the second detection seat 322 to the second test position.
[0047] Specifically, the chip testing device includes at least one testing unit 30, each testing unit 30 includes at least a first group of second conveying mechanisms 31 and a second group of second conveying mechanisms 31 arranged in parallel on the base 10, and the first group of second conveying mechanisms 31 and the second group of second conveying mechanisms 31 are arranged along the extension direction Y of the first conveying mechanism 21 respectively. The first group of second conveying mechanisms 31 is used to convey the first testing seat 321, so as to convey the first chip to be tested to the first testing position through the first testing seat 321; the second group of second conveying mechanisms 31 is used to convey the second testing seat 322, so as to convey the second chip to be tested to the second testing position through the second testing seat 322. Among them, the first chip and the second chip are both chips to be tested.
[0048] Through the above method, the first detection seat 321 and the second detection seat 322 can share the carrier seat 22 as a temporary storage position for the chip to be tested, so that the chip testing equipment can place the chip ready for testing on the loading seat for temporary storage, and transfer the temporarily stored chip to the detection seat 32 for testing when the first detection seat 321 and / or the second detection seat 322 are idle, thereby effectively improving the flexibility of the test; and the chip testing equipment can perform performance tests on the chips to be tested on the first detection seat 321 and the second detection seat 322 at the same time or in different time periods, thereby further improving the test efficiency.
[0049] In one embodiment, see Figure 6 , Figure 6 yes Figure 1A schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the testing mechanism. Figure 6 As shown, the testing mechanism 40 includes a base 41, a first test probe (not shown) and a second test probe (not shown). The first test probe and the second test probe are arranged on both sides of the base 41. The first test probe is arranged corresponding to the first test position, and the second test probe is arranged corresponding to the second test position. The first test probe is used to perform a performance test on the first chip on the first test position, and the second test probe is used to perform a performance test on the second chip on the second test position.
[0050] Specifically, the first test probe and the second test probe of the test mechanism 40 are used to press and contact with the chip to be tested so as to perform performance test on the chip to be tested. The first test probe and the second test probe are arranged on both sides of the base 41, and the test mechanism 40 is used to perform performance test on the first chip on the first test position through the first test probe, and the test mechanism 40 is used to perform performance test on the second chip on the second test position through the second test probe. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the first chip on the first detection seat 321 is tested by the first test probe, and the second chip on the second detection seat 322 is tested by the second test probe, so that the chips to be tested on the first detection seat 321 and the second detection seat 322 can be tested for performance at the same time or in time-sharing, further improving the test efficiency of the detection unit 30.
[0051] In another embodiment, the testing mechanism 40 includes a base 41 and a testing probe, which is slidably connected to the base 41.
