testing contactors for Semiconductor industry

high performance test contactors for wafer testing, product testing, and more

test contactors

Test contactors are used to determine the performance of electrical devices like micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), sensors, microcontrollers, and integrated circuits. They can be used in, for instance, the semiconductor and automotive markets for pre-launch validation and production tests. With dimensions as small as a few micrometers, they can be cost-efficiently mass produced by Electroforming.

Veco is a leading producer of electroformed test contactors for the Semiconductor industry. Our state-of-the-art lithographic process allows for rapid, accurate, and economic manufacturing of thousands of parts in a single batch. Every single contactor is carefully monitored to meet the most demanding quality standards and to guarantee reproducibility of the products. While nickel is commonly used as the main component, extensive variants of materials are possible with inter-layers and coatings.

test socket pins

For a high performance test socket, the contactors, the pins in the socket, play a very important role in transferring the signal between the device under test (DUT) and the system with the least amount of signal attenuation or degradation.

Different types of test sockets are needed for different testing processes with specialized electrical and mechanical parameters, requiring different test pins. Veco provides the industry with test pin solutions with great design flexibility.
