Semiconductor handlers are used in the final test stage to transport packaged integrated circuits to a test socket, apply controlled temperature conditions, and sort devices into categories based on test results.
Handlers typically use a pick-and-place mechanism to move devices from input trays to test sockets. Temperature chambers condition the devices to the desired test temperature. After testing, devices are sorted into output bins.
