Hi-Fix Board

Hi-Fix Board

Test equipment that acts as an interface between tester and handler
  • Hi-Fix board is used to determine the success or failure of package in semiconductor test process (test equipment that acts as an interface between tester and handler)
  • Consists of components (connector, pogo pin, and rubber block)which transfer electric signals that are approved from tester, PCB which comprises a circuit, socket which loads device, socket guide, and equipment for docking handler and tester

Hi-Fix Board Structure

SOCKET PCB

Equipment with circuit to transfer signals from a tester to relevant memory

SMT-type SBC (shield Base Connector)

Non-Rivet & Non-Ion Defect

  • Resolution of problems with standard rivet method such as corroded contacts, rivet hole interference, and problems regarding signal transfer characteristics
  • Improved standard rivet method; components can be attached inside the connector housing if needed and 512 Para can be expanded

Expected effects

  • A patent for connector can be acquired and disputes over the patent can be resolved
  • Price can be reduced by more than 10% compared to competitors and price competitiveness can be improved through PCB design and by supplying own connector
  • Signal transmission properties can be improved by using SMT
  • Rivet-related works are unnecessary (time and additional cost can be saved)
  • Components can be attached between connector pins (properties of PI can be improved)
  • 512Para can be expanded as there is no rivet hole
