[0012] A flexible grounding fixture for testing radio frequency devices in three temperature environments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the flexible grounding tooling includes a test base 1, the test base is provided with a positioning frame 101 of the RF device under test 2, and the three vertical surfaces of the RF device under test are respectively provided with grounding contact pins 201 (grounding plates), and the inner side surfaces of the positioning frame 101 corresponding to the grounding contact pins 201 of the RF device under test 2 are respectively provided with elastic sheets 3. In order to adapt to the three-temperature environment (normal temperature and high and low temperature environments (-40°C~+125°C)), the elastic sheet 3 adopts a beryllium bronze shrapnel covered with a PI film. The beryllium bronze shrapnel covered with a PI film has good elastic deformation, wear resistance and fatigue resistance. After being covered with the PI film, a complete signal extraction material is formed, wherein PI (polyimide film) has extremely strong high and low temperature resistance and low dielectric constant, making it suitable for application in the test and measurement of semiconductor chips in high frequency and three-temperature environments. When the RF device under test 2 is placed in the positioning frame 101, the elastic sheet 3 is squeezed and connected to the grounding contact pin 201.
[0013] The elastic sheet 3 includes a connecting sheet 301 and an elastic sheet 302 whose upper end is bent downward in an arc greater than 120 degrees. In the automated test, the RF device under test is pressed into the positioning frame 101 and taken out from the positioning frame 101 by the clamping claws. In the embodiment: the elastic sheet 3 is fixed on an adjustment block 4 through the connecting sheet 301, and the adjustment block 4 is fixed in the positioning frame 101. The elastic sheet 302 of the elastic sheet 3 elastically tilts forward and upward. Since the RF device under test and the elastic sheet are in elastic pressure contact, in order to prevent the elastic sheet from being brought out or deformed and damaged during the extraction process, a support plate 102 is provided in the positioning frame 101. The support plate 102 is used to locate the placement depth of the RF device under test 2. At the same time, the support plate 102 covers the section 302-1 at the front end of the elastic sheet 302, so that the extrusion point where the ground contact pin 201 of the RF device under test 2 contacts the elastic sheet 302 is in the middle section of the longitudinal direction of the elastic sheet.
[0014] In the embodiment, a test interface SMA connector 5 is provided on the outer side of the positioning frame 101 corresponding to the ground contact pin 201 .
[0015] In the above-described flexible grounding tooling embodiment for testing radio frequency devices in a three-temperature environment, the beryllium bronze shrapnel covered with PI film provides reliable connection; the design of covering the cross-section at the front end of the shrapnel with a support plate, such that the extrusion point where the grounding contact foot of the radio frequency device under test contacts the shrapnel is in the middle section in the longitudinal direction of the shrapnel, ensures that the contact between the grounding contact foot and the shrapnel is always smooth when inserting and removing the radio frequency device under test, and prevents the phenomenon of lifting the shrapnel when removing the radio frequency device under test.
