ABSTRACT:
The laterally contacting elastomeric array is preferably adapted for use in connecting the pin electronics in a test-head to an electronic device under test. The array comprises a plastic elastomer boat for supporting a plurality of elastomeric contacts, and an insulating thread or filament, or retaining nipples, for supporting the contacts in the elastomer boat. The contacts are each cylindrical, have a hole for receiving the supporting thread (filament) or nipples, and are compressed laterally rather than on their ends.
