Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of signal terminal switching, in particular to a module single-side signal terminal switching device. Background Art

[0002] IGBT stands for Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor, which is a composite fully controlled voltage-driven power semiconductor device composed of BJT (bipolar transistor) and MOS (insulated gate field effect transistor). It has the advantages of high input impedance of MOSFET and low on-state voltage drop of GTR. It has low driving power and low saturation voltage drop. The gate of IGBT is electrically isolated from the emitter by a layer of oxide film. It has excellent device performance and is widely used in servo motors, inverters, variable-frequency home appliances and other fields.

[0003] When testing its performance, different jigs are required for different IGBT modules to meet its testing requirements. For common IGBT package modules, the signal terminals are generally on the upper surface of the module, so the test method usually used is to put the test jig on top and the module under test on the bottom. The module is fixed on a device with adjustable height, and the sampling is performed by extending it upward and crimping it with the jig sampling probe. This test jig has also been relatively standardized and has formed specifications on multiple production test lines.

[0004] For example, the patent announcement number is CN219456224U, and the patent name is an existing patented technology for a test fixture for IGBT modules. This patented technology discloses a test fixture with the module under test at the bottom and the test fixture at the top. This fixture is suitable for testing signal terminals on the upper surface of the module. However, for some modules with signal terminals on the side, such as modules with single-sided signal terminals that need to be tested for performance, it is impossible to directly test them using the existing upper and lower crimping sampling method. Therefore, it is necessary to change the test fixture, but the design of the test fixture cannot be universal. However, the cost of changing the test fixture is high, and it may be necessary to increase the number of production lines, which is more troublesome to operate. Utility Model Content
