NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Hampton Beach, NH, United
States, 02/10/2010 - BGA/LGA test sockets are smaller, faster,
more affordable when compared to legacy solutions.
Ardent Concepts, Inc. a world leader in patented solutions for
high performance compliant connector and test sockets, has announced
the availability of RC Springprobe AT™, an innovative new
High Volume Manufacturing Test Socket solution for large array
BGA and LGA devices.
“RC Springprobe technology continues it’s natural
evolution in scalability.” said Steve Cleveland, Vice President
of Business Development “By modifying several salient characteristics
of our core technology, we have developed a version of the contact
that is ideal for testing large devices at speed in ATE environments.”
Better AC Performance, Better Cycle Life, Same Small Form
Factor
RC Springprobe AT™ provides an advanced set of features
over traditional legacy spring probes, with lower initial &
overall costs. ATE sockets designed with RC Springprobe AT™

Replacement components are a fraction of the cost of high speed
spring probes, and are capable of handling even the most demanding
AC performance requirements for GHz+ devices. “We are helping
our customers break free from the constraints of existing solutions,”
explains Steve “By giving them a reliable RF test socket
at a much more reasonable price point.”
