Cost-efficient and Flexible Solution for Managing Power Dissipation

Multitest ATC for the MT2168 Pick-and-Place Handler

The Multitest ATC option for the MT2168 pick-and-place handler offers a most cost-efficient and flexible solution for managing low to medium range power dissipation at multisite test cells with up to 16 sites. Multitest ATC is an easy add-on to the standard MT2168, which can be mounted and demounted effortless. Multitest ATC is an affordable, reliable and flexible solution for test development and high volume production.

In the past power dissipation was recognized as an issue for high performance server, processor and graphic applications. Today package density and integration increases more and more to achieve higher speed and save space particularly in mobile applications. The power dissipation here is significantly less than in the high performance applications. However, thermal stress may damage the packages, temperature test may be distorted and test repeatability and yield lost. Additionally, there is a higher cost pressure for this market, which requires best cost of test configurations.

Multitest meets this need for managing power dissipation with the ATC add-on to the MT2168. No dedicated equipment is required, but all ATC functions are delivered by parts of the conversion kit. The operation is unchanged to a standard set-up and no dedicated training or spare part management is needed.

The Multitest ATC ensures highest flexibility. It can easily be mounted, demounted and changed to other MT2168 handlers in the field. Any standard MT2168 can be configured with this add-on, but will be available for standard test again once the add-on will be removed.
