What it is
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedAn IC handler moves devices into and out of a test interface for electrical evaluation. An IC handler typically uses mechanical transport, positioning, and device-presenting stages to feed parts through a test cycle.
A handler of this class can include arms, shuttles, loaders, unloaders, and motion axes to present devices consistently to probing or test stations. A handler of this class supports automated transfer so that devices can be sorted after test.
