Abstract

A system and method for burning-in an integrated circuit comprises a socket capable of receiving and supporting the IC, electrical leads in the socket for connecting to corresponding leads on the chip, and a heat sink in thermal contact with a cooling medium. A first thermal interface provides releasable thermal contact between the integrated circuit in the socket and a resiliently mounted heat absorbing member. A second thermal interface is provided between the heat absorbing member and the heat sink.
