[0030] The technical solutions shown in the present application will be described in detail below through specific embodiments. It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments does not limit the priority order of the embodiments.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1, the chip test protection device of the present application includes a chip test board 1 and a protection switch 4. The chip test board 1 is matched with a workpiece 2 for chip testing, and at least has a first card slot 31 and a second card slot 32. Among them, the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32 are located on the same surface, and the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32 are located at the same horizontal position.

[0032] In the specific implementation process, the protection switch 4 is arranged between the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32. The protection switch 4 is provided with a detector 5. When the workpiece 2 is inserted into the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32, the action magnetic column 7 connected to the workpiece 2 closes the protection switch 4, and then the protection switch 4 generates a closing parameter. If the closing parameter is greater than the preset threshold of the detector 5, it is determined that the insertion of the workpiece 2 is abnormal. Thus, during the process of inserting the workpiece 2 into the chip test board 1 for testing, it can prevent the workpiece 2 from having an insertion failure or not being fully inserted, avoid damaging the workpiece 2, and improve the test efficiency, accuracy and reliability of the chip test protection device.

[0033] It can be understood that the action magnetic column 7 is arranged at one end of the workpiece 2 facing the chip test board 1, that is, during the process of inserting the workpiece 2 into the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32, the action magnetic column 7 gradually approaches and abuts against the protection switch 4, that is, the action magnetic column 7 corresponds to the protection switch 4 in terms of positional relationship.

[0034] Furthermore, the workpiece 2 in this embodiment can be a circuit board integrated with a chip. Then, one end of the workpiece 2 facing the chip test board 1 can be correspondingly provided with a first metallized contact pad 21 and a second metallized contact pad 22. The first metallized contact pad 21 is inserted into the first card slot 31, and the second metallized contact pad 22 is inserted into the second card slot 32. Then, the action magnetic column 7 can be located between the first metallized contact pad 21 and the second metallized contact pad 22.

[0035] Optionally, the workpiece 2 can be a BIB (Bare Integrated Board) circuit board integrated with a chip. The BIB circuit board directly integrates the chip onto the circuit board without using a package. While greatly reducing the volume and weight of the circuit, it can also better transfer heat and dissipate heat, achieving a more compact layout, thereby improving the circuit integration. Then, the chip test board 1 can be a BIOven slot test board. Among them, BI (Bare Integrated) defines that the chip test board 1 is designed for bare die integrated circuits without a package, and Oven defines that this chip test board 1 can perform heat treatment. Thus, the chip test protection device of this embodiment can be applied to a UFS (Universal Flash Storage) BIB Power storage device to pass the chip test and ensure the high performance and reliability of the UFS storage device.

[0036] Of course, the chip test protection device of this embodiment is not limited to this, and it can also be applied to the test of working parts of other integrated chips, which will not be elaborated here.

[0037] In one embodiment, the chip test board 1 may be provided with a third card slot 33. The third card slot 33 is on the same surface as the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32, and the third card slot 33 is at the same horizontal position as the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32. Among them, the protection switch 4 may also be arranged between the second card slot 32 and the third card slot 33.

[0038] Furthermore, one end of the working part 2 facing the chip test board 1 may be correspondingly provided with a third metallized contact pad 23. Then the third metallized contact pad 23 is inserted into the third card slot 33, and the action magnetic column 7 is also located between the second metallized contact pad 22 and the third metallized contact pad 23.

[0039] During the test of the working part 2, when the working part 2 is inserted into the first card slot 31, the second card slot 32 and the third card slot 33, the two action magnetic columns 7 connected to the working part 2 synchronously close the two protection switches 4. The two protection switches 4 generate two closing parameters. If the two closing parameters are greater than the preset threshold of the detector 5, it is determined that the insertion of the working part 2 is abnormal. At the same time, the detector 5 can also send out an abnormal signal, thereby further preventing the working part 2 from being inserted malfunctionally or not being fully inserted, and thus avoiding damage to the working part 2, improving the test efficiency, accuracy and reliability of the chip test protection device.

[0040] It can be understood that the detector 5 is electrically connected to the protection switch 4 for detecting the closing parameters of the protection switch 4. Optionally, the closing parameter can be an impedance value, and the preset threshold of the detector 5 can be 5Ω. That is, after the working part 2 is inserted into the chip test board 1, the action magnetic column 7 closes the protection switch 4. Under normal conditions, the metallized contact pad of the working part 2 is well connected to the test socket of the chip test board 1 and is inserted in place, then the impedance value after the protection switch 4 is normally closed is less than 5Ω. However, when the working part 2 is inserted malfunctionally, such as not being inserted in place or not being fully inserted, the protection switch 4 is not closed smoothly or not closed, then the impedance value of the protection switch 4 is greater than 5Ω. In this case, the insertion of the working part 2 is abnormal, and the detector 5 can send out an abnormal signal, thereby improving the test efficiency, accuracy and reliability of the chip test.

[0041] Optionally, the abnormal signal sent by the detector 5 may include a buzzer alarm signal or a test circuit disconnection signal.

[0042] Reference Figure 4, the input voltage of the detector 5 can be 5V. After the workpiece 2 is normally inserted into the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32, the moving magnetic column 7 normally closes the protection switch 4 and the protection switch 4 generates a closing parameter. If the closing parameter does not reach the preset threshold of the detector 5, the detector 5 outputs a normal signal of 5V, and the chip test board 1 matches the workpiece 2 to perform a chip test. If the closing parameter is greater than the preset threshold of the detector 5, the detector 5 emits an abnormal signal of 12V. This abnormal signal can be transmitted to the buzzer 51 to give an abnormal alarm, or can be used as a test circuit disconnection signal to disconnect the chip test of the chip test board 1.

[0043] In the specific implementation process, refer to Figure 2 or Figure 3 , the protection switch 4 can include a reed switch 6, then the moving magnetic column 7 controls the opening and closing of the reed switch 6. The detector 5 is electrically connected to the reed switch 6 and detects the closing parameter of the reed switch 6. The reed switch 6 is arranged between the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32, and between the second card slot 32 and the third card slot 33. The moving magnetic column 7 is correspondingly connected to the workpiece 2. Then, during the process of inserting the workpiece 2 into the chip test board 1, the moving magnetic column 7 approaches and finally abuts against the reed switch 6, thereby closing the protection switch 4.

[0044] Furthermore, accommodation grooves 11 are provided between the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32 and between the second card slot 32 and the third card slot 33. The reed switch 6 is connected in the accommodation groove 11. Thus, on the one hand, it provides protection for the accommodation groove 11, and on the other hand, it can provide a structural path guide for the moving magnetic column 7 during the process of inserting the workpiece 2 into the chip test board 1.

[0045] It can be understood that a reed switch (also known as a magnetic sensor switch, reed relay or magnetron) is a small switch device that operates using a magnetic field. In the absence of an external magnetic field, its reed contacts are separated, so the circuit is open. When a strong enough external magnetic field approaches, the reed contacts will be attracted and closed, allowing current to pass through and forming a closed circuit. The specific function of the reed switch 6 in this embodiment can be obtained by those skilled in the art according to the prior art, and the structure and working principle of the reed switch 6 will not be elaborated here.

[0046] In one embodiment, in order to avoid hard contact between the reed switch 6 and the moving magnetic column 7, a buffer magnetic strip 71 can be provided at one end of the moving magnetic column 7 facing the reed switch 6 to improve the structural reliability.

[0047] The protection switch 4 of this embodiment further includes a self-locking member 8. The self-locking member 8 is arranged on the moving magnetic column 7. After the workpiece 2 is inserted into the first card slot 31, the second card slot 32 and the third card slot 33, the self-locking member 8 locks the reed switch 6 and the moving magnetic column 7. Specifically, refer to Figure 2, the self-locking member 8 may include an arc-shaped elastic piece 9 connected to the side of the actuating magnetic post 7. A first locking groove 12 is provided on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 11. When the workpiece 2 is inserted into the first card slot 31, the second card slot 32, and the third card slot 33, the arc-shaped elastic piece 9 is fitted into the first locking groove 12, thereby ensuring the stable connection between the reed switch 6 and the actuating magnetic post 7.

[0048] On the other hand, referring to Figure 3 , the self-locking member 8 may further include an accommodating cavity 81, a round-head slider 82, an elastic member 83, and a fixing groove 84. Among them, a second locking groove 13 is provided on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 11.

[0049] Furthermore, the accommodating cavity 81 is provided on the side of the actuating magnetic post 7. The first end face of the round-head slider 82 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 81. The second end face of the round-head slider 82 is higher than the accommodating cavity 81. The fixing groove 84 is provided on the first end face. The elastic member 83 is arranged in the fixing groove 84, and at least one end of the elastic member 83 abuts against the accommodating cavity 81. During the process of the workpiece 2 being inserted into the first card slot 31, the second card slot 32, and the third card slot 33, the workpiece 2 forces the round-head slider 82 to compress the elastic member 83 and contract into the accommodating cavity 81 on the actuating magnetic post 7. After the workpiece 2 is inserted into the first card slot 31, the second card slot 32, and the third card slot 33, the round-head slider 82 protrudes and is fitted into the second locking groove 13 under the action of the elastic member 83, thereby ensuring the stable connection between the reed switch 6 and the actuating magnetic post 7.

[0050] In summary, this embodiment discloses a chip test protection device, including a chip test board 1 and a protection switch 4. The first card slot 31 and the second card slot position 12 of the chip test board 1 are on the same surface and at the same horizontal position. Among them, the protection switch 4 is arranged between the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32. The protection switch 4 is provided with a detector 5. When the workpiece 2 is inserted into the first card slot 31 and the second card slot 32, the actuating magnetic post 7 connected to the workpiece 2 closes the protection switch 4, and then the protection switch 4 generates a closing parameter. If the closing parameter is greater than the preset threshold of the detector 5, it is determined that the insertion of the workpiece 2 is abnormal. Thus, the test efficiency, accuracy, and reliability of chip testing are improved.

[0051] The above has introduced the present application in detail. Specific examples are used in this article to elaborate on the principle and implementation manner of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the core idea of the present application; at the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present application, there will be changes in the specific implementation manner and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.
