    Abstract: A chip testing solution having two separate contacts: one to provide current and one to measure voltage. One contact acts as the force and other as sense, and with its unique short wipe stroke technology enables the electrical connection from the contact terminal of the device under test (DUT) to the loadboard without fail even after prolonged insertion/testing of the devices. The two contacts are in close proximity, but electrically isolated from each other. Each contact is made to electrically touch a single conductive lead/pad on the DUT thus forming a test connection. The two contacts; one on front and other on back, wiping on the lead/pads will generally be a “sense” probe, and a “force” used for making a Kelvin connection. The short contact is connected to the loadboard by means of an additional contact known as “interposer” extending through and top of the tall contact base body.

    Abstract: A ground electrical contact for an integrated circuit (IC) testing apparatus that comprises: a rigid bottom member having two planar surfaces that slope towards each other, so that the bottom member forms a partial wedge shape with the top end of the wedge being narrower than the bottom end; a flexible top member having two arms extending over said bottom member such that the top member forms an inverted U-shape, said two arms having an inwards bias such that an inner surface of each arm is pressed in contact with each planar surface; and a compressible member located between the narrower end of said bottom member and a bifurcation inner surface, which is an inner surface where the two arms bifurcate in the top member. The bottom member and top member are made of an electrically conductive material.
