Accurately setting and controlling temperature of devices under test is an increasingly important part of device testing. Establishing a test temperature rapidly is critical to increasing throughput in the test cell. This is especially important in Tri-temp testing for automotive and high reliability applications.

With Test-in-Tray, many devices can be thermally conditioned in parallel, greatly increasing test efficiency. Centipede Systems is committed to providing thermal management technology necessary for burn-in and testing in tray formats. Trays of devices are tested in chambers with controlled gas and temperature environments. Temperature of the chamber may be cycled rapidly through a regime of test conditions, such as TriTemp testing.

For those applications requiring burn-in of high performance devices, the increased power dissipation due to leakage currents at high temperature presents a special challenge. Centipede meets that challenge with a range of burn-in PODS for high power/current devices in individual and tray format. Centipede remains committed to providing solutions to the most demanding TnT requirements.
