ABSTRACT:
An electronic circuit test system for measuring the response to electrical signals applied to an electronic circuit under test is provided with a docking system for facilitating mechanical and electrical connections. A docking cone is mounted to a fixture board of the electronic circuit test system. The docking cone enters a tunnel in a test head of the electronic circuit test system as the fixture board is moved toward the test head. The docking cone guides connectors mounted to the fixture board into connection with mating connectors mounted to a load board and a connector support disk comprising the test head. The docking system increases the repeatability and reliability of mechanical and electrical connections and reduces the risk of damage to electrical connectors of the electronic circuit test system.
