Abstract
A system for communicatively connecting devices for testing to respective test pins of a test head of an automatic test equipment (ATE). The system includes a tester interface device for communicative connection to the test pins of the ATE. The tester interface device includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector is communicatively connected by the tester interface device to a first group of the test pins and the second connector is communicatively connected by the tester interface device to a second group of the test pins. The first group and the second group can be different test pins, same test pins, or combinations of some same and some different test pins. The system may also include a first pogo pin block device and a second pogo pin block device.
