Kelvin Test Socket

Kelvin Test Socket

ARIES SPECIALIZES IN CUSTOM DESIGN AND PRODUCTION. IN ADDITION TO THE STANDARD PRODUCTS SHOWN ON THIS PAGE, SPECIAL MATERIALS, PLATINGS, SIZES, AND CONFIGURATION CAN BE FURNISHED, DEPENDING ON QUANTITY. ARIES RESERVES THE RIGHT TO CHANGE PRODUCT SPECIFICATION WITHOUT NOTICE.
FEATURES

  • Low resistance testing using dual independent Aries Kelvin spring probe technology per device pad for testing of MLF, QFN, LGA and other leadless devices.
  • Any pitch device on 0.40mm pitch or higher
  • Socket is easily mounted and removed to & from the test board due to solderless pressure mount compression spring probes which, are accurately located by two molded plastic alignment pins and mounted with four stainless steel screws
  • The gold over nickel plated compression spring probes leave very small witness marks on the bottom surface of the device pads
  • Small overall socket size/profile allows maximum number of sockets per test board, while being operator friendly
  • Kelvin Test Socket Contact System is available for any Aries CSP and Center Probe Test Sockets
  • Pressure pad compression spring provides proper force against device and allows for height variations in device thickness
  • Probe blade edge tip for cutting through solder oxide layers
  • Signal path during test only 0.082 [2.08]

SPECIFICATIONS

  • Molded Socket Components: UL94V-0 Ultem
  • Machined Socket Components: UL94V-0 PEEK or Torlon
  • All Hardware: Stainless Steel
  • Compression Spring Probe: heat-treated Beryllium-Copper
  • Compression Spring Probe Plating: 50μ min. [1.27μ] Gold per Mil-G-45204 over 50μ min. [1.27μ] Nickel per SAE-AMS-QQ-N-290
  • Durability: 500,000 cycles minimum
  • Contact Force : 16g per contact on 0.40-0.45mm pitch

MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS

  • See “PCB FOOTPRINT TOP VIEW” for requirements
  • Requires four #2-56 screws and PEM nuts for mounting (not supplied – mounting holes size shown may differ depending on PEM nut selected)
  • Sockets must be handled with care when mounting or removing to/from test board to avoid damaging sensitive spring contacts
  • Test PCB Diameter “P” : 0.012 [0.31] (small probe 0.40-0.45mm pitch)
