Abstract:
A method for determining the alignment of a plurality of contacts in an electronic testing machine is disclosed. The contacts are swept over an electronic component taking a plurality of electrical readings. These electrical readings are charted against a desired orientation to determine alignment. Alignment can be corrected as necessary using an adjustment mechanism.
