Abstract
A testing apparatus and method for testing a semiconductor device, and more particularly a test arrangement for measuring a guaranteed power loss of a semiconductor module, not requiring the module to have on-board decoupling capacitors for the power loss test. The conventional pogo-pin array and test socket are replaced by a novel low cost anisotropic conductive elastomer and a low cost socket, the conductive polymer providing electrical communication between the socket and the module under test.
