Antenna in Package (AiP) Socket
Product Outline
We introduce innovative test socket for AiP device which is built in the latest smartphone and other mobile applications.
As the important factor for OTA test of AiP module by ATE, it is necessary to use the specialized test socket for AiP.
In the case of traditional test socket design, we only care electric signal interface on ATE side. But in the case of AiP device which has antenna both top side and bottom side of the package, we need to consider the design for OTA (Over The Air Testing) side.
That is similar requirement for image sensor socket design, but also it is required to consider electric magnetic field for AiP devices.
