A system includes probe pins each including a probe tip and a plurality of thermocouples arranged such that at least one thermocouple is positioned between a pair of the probe pins. The plurality of thermocouples can be placed adjacent or above a device under test (DUT). The probe tips of the probe pins are placed over a plurality of pads. The plurality of thermocouples are placed adjacent or between the plurality of pads. The at least one thermocouple positioned between the pair of the probe pins can be either a single thermocouple or a thermocouple array.
