Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device test apparatus, comprising: a socket, which connects to a semiconductor device undergoing testing that is mounted on the socket; and a test tray, which houses the semiconductor device undergoing testing and which is provided, in a position on which the semiconductor device undergoing testing is mounted, with a first electronic cooling element that absorbs heat via one surface thereof and releases heat via the other surface thereof, wherein the semiconductor device undergoing testing is housed in the test tray and the bottom side of the semiconductor device undergoing testing is pre-cooled by the first electronic cooling element; the test tray is mounted on the socket and a test is implemented while cooling a bottom side of the semiconductor device undergoing testing, which is mounted on the socket, by the first electronic cooling element; and, after completion of the test, the semiconductor device undergoing testing is heated by the first electronic cooling element of the test tray.
