As time goes on, the target functions implemented by chips become more diverse, and testing becomes increasingly complex. In the past, chips were primarily used in consumer electronics such as mobile phones and computers. However, as chips gradually enter new electronic application areas, this is no longer a simple matter. Each end market has unique needs, and the methods and conditions for chip usage differ, resulting in more factors affecting chip functionality and quality than before. To ensure effective, reliable, and stable chip functionality and quality, all chips undergo comprehensive testing of all functions before development and application.
[0003] However, current chip testing methods may have certain problems. Conventional chip test sockets often only consider signal port connections and electrical insulation, easily overlooking potential signal crosstalk, which can lead to test signal distortion and affect test results and yield. To address these issues, we propose a chip test socket with enhanced signal suppression. Utility Model Content
