[0024] Specifically, by connecting the vacuum tube 1 to the rear panel 102 and the needle plate 203, a stable vacuum suction is generated, which firmly attaches the UUT to the carrier plate 205, avoiding any displacement during the test. At the same time, it avoids the potential impact of mechanical stress on the product that may be caused by traditional fixtures, ensuring the accuracy of the test and the integrity of the product.
[0025] The support assembly includes a housing 101 and a rear panel 102. The rear panel 102 is vertically mounted on the housing 101 and the housing 101 is connected to the rear panel 102 to support the electronic components inside the device.

[0029] Specifically, the needle plate 203 is connected stably with the shell 101, and the probes 204 mounted thereon are vertically aligned with the test points on the UUT. At this time, the limiting assembly (including the guide column 401, the guide sleeve 402, and the hinge 403) plays a role to ensure the accurate position of the needle plate 203 and the carrier plate 205 during the detection process, and prevent the deviation caused by external force or vibration.
