Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of integrated circuit testing, in particular to an integrated circuit testing socket. Background Art

[0002] Any integrated circuit is a monolithic module designed to complete certain electrical characteristics and functions. IC testing is the testing of integrated circuits. If there are defect-free products, there is no need for integrated circuit testing. Due to the defects brought about by the actual manufacturing process and the defects of the materials themselves, no matter how perfect the product is, there will be defective individuals. Therefore, testing has become one of the indispensable projects in integrated circuit manufacturing, and integrated circuit test sockets have also become a more commonly used testing equipment.

When testing is required, the sealing plate is removed to allow the test probe to extend. However, the test probe will still be contaminated with external dust and water vapor during the test in the placement cavity, which will result in dust or water vapor moving into the placement cavity with the test probe during the process of retracting the test probe after the test is completed, thereby causing damage to the test probe and affecting subsequent integrated circuit testing.
