ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for controlling the temperature of an electronic device under test utilizes a thermal head spaced apart from a movable support structure by a mechanical isolation assembly. The support structure has a manifold configured to route refrigerant fluid between the evaporator head and components of a refrigeration system. The mechanical isolation assembly is configured to compensate for variations in the planar orientation of the device under test. Moreover, the mechanical isolation assembly preferably includes bellows through which the refrigerant fluid is conducted.
