What it is

The Advantest M 6542 AD is a dynamic test handler.[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

The handler picks devices from an input source, such as a tray or tube, and places them into a test socket where electrical contact is made with the test head.

After testing, the handler removes the device and places it into a designated output bin according to the test outcome, often under temperature-controlled conditions.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Test handlers are used after wafer testing (probe) and before final shipment of packaged devices, forming part of the backend test floor.

The M 6542 AD interfaces with an automatic test equipment (ATE) system to provide the mechanical handling needed for high-volume production test.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Dynamic test handlers are used for the final electrical test of packaged semiconductor devices, including memory, logic, and mixed-signal ICs.
