[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0028] Please see attached Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the FPGA-based universal flash memory testing device in the embodiment of the utility model includes a test board 1, the upper end surface of the test board 1 is fixedly connected with a test socket 2, the upper side of the test socket 2 is rotatably connected with an upper cover 3, a lifting groove 7 is opened in the middle of the upper end surface of the test socket 2, the inner side of the lifting groove 7 is slidably connected with a lifting test platform 8, and the inside of the lifting groove 7 is fixedly connected with a plurality of spring probes 12. The set test board 1 is an FPGA board with good programmability and flexibility. During testing, the chip is placed on the lifting test platform 8 of the test socket 2, and the lifting test platform 8 can move downward, so that the spring probe 12 can fully contact with the pins of the universal flash memory chip, thereby reducing the occurrence of poor contact and ensuring that the test signal is accurately transmitted to and from the chip.

[0029] The lifting test platform 8 includes a base 81 , and a plurality of test holes 82 are opened on the inner side of the base 81 . The plurality of spring probes 12 correspond one-to-one to the positions of the plurality of test holes 82 , respectively. The spring probes 12 corresponding one-to-one to the positions of the test holes 82 will not interfere with the movement of the lifting test platform 8 .

[0030] Telescopic grooves 83 are provided at the four corners of the lower end surface of the seat body 81. The internal sliding sleeve of the telescopic groove 83 is provided with a guide rod 85. The lower end of the guide rod 85 is fixedly connected to the lifting groove 7. A first spring 84 is provided between the guide rod 85 and the telescopic groove 83. The elastic force provided by the set first spring 84 enables the lifting test platform 8 to pop out again after being lowered. When the seat body 81 moves, the set guide rod 85 can ensure that the seat body 81 moves up and down stably.

[0031] The spring probe 12 includes a sleeve 121, and contact heads 122 are slidably sleeved at both upper and lower ends of the sleeve 121. A third spring 123 is arranged inside the sleeve 121, and both ends of the third spring 123 are respectively in contact with the two contact heads 122. When the spring probe 12 is in use, the two contact heads 122 can be elastically extended and retracted through the third spring 123.

[0032] The contact head 122 located at the bottom extends out of the lower end surface of the test socket 2 and is electrically connected to the test board 1 .

[0033] Grooves 10 are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the lifting groove 7, and a positioning assembly 11 is arranged inside the groove 10. The positioning assembly 11 includes a limit rod 112, the inner end of the limit rod 112 is fixedly connected to the groove 10, and the outer end is slidably sleeved with a head 111, and a second spring 113 is arranged between the head 111 and the groove 10. The positioning assembly 11 is arranged to clamp and position the chip above it after the lifting test platform 8 is lowered to prevent the chip from shaking. Specifically, the upper cover 3 is closed, and the lifting test platform 8 is pressed down to move downward. After the obstruction of the groove 10 is released, the head 111 is ejected, thereby positioning the chip through the side, wherein the end of the head 111 is sloped, and when the lifting test platform 8 is raised, the head 111 can be pushed back into the groove 10 by the lifting test platform 8.

[0034] The lower end surface of the upper cover 3 is fixedly connected with a contact seat 6, and the upper end surface of the contact seat 6 is fixedly connected with a heat sink 4.

The heat sink 4 is provided to facilitate heat dissipation and temperature reduction to prevent the chip temperature from being too high during testing.

[0035] A locking piece 5 is connected to the front end of the upper cover 3, and a slot 9 is provided at the front end of the test socket 2. The lower end of the locking piece 5 is engaged with the slot 9. After the upper cover 3 is closed, the locking piece 5 is engaged with the slot 9 of the test socket 2, thereby locking the upper cover 3 and the test socket 2.

[0036] Working principle: When in use, the chip is placed on the lifting test platform 8 of the test socket 2, and the pins of the chip are aligned with the test holes 82. Then, the upper cover 3 is covered. After the upper cover 3 is closed, it contacts the chip and presses down the lifting test platform 8. The lifting test platform 8 can move downward, so that the spring probe 12 can fully contact the pins of the universal flash memory chip, reducing the occurrence of poor contact and ensuring that the test signal is accurately transmitted to and from the chip. After the upper cover 3 is opened, the elastic force provided by the first spring 84 is set, so that the lifting test platform 8 can be lifted from the inside of the lifting slot 7 after being lowered, thereby directly lifting the universal flash memory chip, making it more convenient to take and place the chip, and improving the test efficiency.
