ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a universal measuring adapter system for adapting or contacting semiconductor components in the most varied packages for electrically operating and measuring the same. The pins or contact pads of the package are electrically contacted on the input side in a specially adapted socket, and the socket, on the side of the device (output side), has contact pins whose pin assignment corresponds to the pin assignment of the package contacted inside the socket. The aim of the invention is to create a universal measuring system for adapting or contacting semiconductor components in the most varied packages for electrically operating, measuring and analyzing the same, with which, on the side of the device, the pin numbers can always be tapped at the same location regardless of the package and which is suited for expansion stages with any number of pins and pin configurations. To this end, a socket adapter, which is comprised of at least one adapter board, is arranged between the socket and a PGA socket with a standardized contact assignment. Said socket adapter depicts the rewiring of each individual connection of the package in a special pattern that always has the same orientation.
