風扇230可以形成測試腔室130內氣流。例如,風扇230可以包括上風扇單元和下風扇單元,各個風扇單元可以與外部的空氣流入裝置或者空氣排出裝置連接而使空氣向測試腔室130內部流入,或將測試腔室130的空氣向外部排出。例如,可以是,上風扇單元使空氣向測試腔室130內部流入,下風扇單元將測試腔室130的空氣向外部排出。流入到測試腔室130的空氣可以經過內部循環向外部排出。
The
風道220可以將測試腔室130內氣流向特定方向引導。例如,風道220可以使得引導到測試腔室130的上方(或者下方)的氣流向驅動單元210側下降(或者上升),並從驅動單元210經由加壓單元240、雙面模板250向測試托盤20的方向引導氣流。

如上所述,需要對安放在測試托盤20中的半導體元件SD在相同的環境下進行測試。半導體元件SD的工作溫度包含於測試環境,因此要求被測試的半導體元件SD的均勻的溫度分佈。但是,在實際測試環境中可能產生不均勻的溫度分佈,通常發生位於測試托盤20的中心部的半導體元件SD的溫度不能達到目標溫度的情況。例如,發生如下情況:當在高溫環境下進行測試時,位於測試托盤20的中心部的半導體元件SD具有比位於測試托盤20的外圍的半導體元件SD低的溫度,當在低溫環境下進行測試時,位於測試托盤20的中心部的半導體元件SD具有比位於測試托盤20的外圍的半導體元件SD高的溫度。

FIG. 3 shows an example of the
在氣流調節板300中可以形成多個孔洞,氣流可以透過孔洞穿過。例如,如圖3那樣,氣流調節板300的孔洞可以包括相對位於中心部並具有第一尺寸的第一孔洞301以及以一定間隔排列並具有比第一尺寸小的第二尺寸的第二孔洞302。如圖3所示,第二孔洞可以由多個洞的集合構成。圖3只是示出形成有孔洞的氣流調節板300的一例,可以使用具有各種大小以及形狀的孔洞。

更具體地,底座部件314可以使用螺栓緊固或者粘合劑附著於氣流調節板300。底座部件314可以具有與形成於氣流調節板300的孔洞(例如:
第一孔洞301或者第二孔洞302)相對應的形狀,但可以具有與形成於氣流調節板300的孔洞無關的形狀。例如,底座部件314可以如圖3那樣具有與第二孔洞302相對應的孔洞,但也可以具有任意形狀的孔洞。封堵部件316可以透過相對於底座部件314移動來調節氣流調節板300的孔洞的開放面積。例如,封堵部件316可以具有以中心軸線為中心形成的葉片形態。封堵部件316可以形成為如風扇那樣能夠相對於中心軸線旋轉,與控制桿312的旋轉一起旋轉。例如,可以是,當要將氣流調節板300的特定孔洞完全開放時,封堵部件316在底座部件314中位於沒有形成孔洞的堵塞部位,當要將氣流調節板300的特定孔洞的一半(50%)開放時,封堵部件316的一部分在底座部件314中位於孔洞部位而剩餘部分位於沒有形成孔洞的堵塞部位。用於調節封堵部件的位置的控制桿312可以可旋轉地設置於底座部件314的中心部,但可以實現為各種方式。

根據本說明書的實施例,需要在氣流調節板300中位於需要大量氣流的部位的孔洞完全開放,位於不需要氣流或相對需要少量氣流的部位的孔洞完全封閉或封閉一部分。此時,可以是,結合於需要大量流量的位置的流量調節單元310將孔洞完全開放,結合於需要少量流量的位置的流量調節單元310將孔洞僅開放或封閉一部分。如此,與測試腔室130的環境相符合地使用流量調節單元310按照各個氣流調節板300的孔洞調節開放面積(開放比率),從而能夠控制測試腔室130的腔室內氣流,而且透過氣流控制能夠減少安放在測試托盤20中的半導體元件SD的溫度偏差。

In addition, in an embodiment, like the first
與第一流量調節單元310相似地,需要在風擋400中位於需要大量氣流的部位的孔洞完全開放,位於不需要氣流或相對需要少量氣流的部位的孔洞完全封閉或封閉一部分。此時,可以是,結合於需要大量流量的位置的第二流量調節單元410將孔洞完全開放,結合於需要少量流量的位置的第二流量調節單元410將孔洞僅開放或封閉一部分。
Similar to the first
如此,可以與測試腔室130的環境相符合地使用第一流量調節單元310和第二流量調節單元410按照氣流調節板300以及風擋400的位置調節氣流的流量。尤其,透過按照氣流調節板300以及風擋400的位置調節孔洞的開放面積,能夠對測試腔室130的腔室內氣流進行多級(2級)控制。由此,能夠減少安放在測試托盤20中的半導體元件SD的溫度偏差。
