The Towa SBS 8808 is a handler.[1]
Handlers typically use a pick-and-place or gravity-feed mechanism to move devices into alignment with the test socket. The device is then pressed onto contact pins to make electrical connections with the tester. After the test completes, the handler removes the device and places it into a pass or reject bin.
After testing, the handler sorts devices into bins according to performance grade or yield category. The sorted devices then proceed to tape and reel or tray packaging for shipment.
The handler is used for final electrical test of packaged semiconductor devices. Typical applications include parametric testing, functional testing, and burn-in testing.
Handlers of this class support a variety of package types including QFP, BGA, SOIC, and others, depending on the specific tooling installed.
