Abstract

A handler for electronic components, in particular IC's, for controlling the temperature of the components and supplying and removing said components to and from a test device has circulating units that can be moved along a circulating track. Each unit has at least one retaining unit for retaining a component. In addition, the circulating units have temperature-control chambers containing components that are retained by the retaining units, so that the temperature of the components can be controlled during transport from the charging station to the test station.
