Patent ID: 7034558

Claim:
A system for electrically connecting a device under test and a test circuit board, the device comprising at least a first electrical contact point, a second electrical contact point, and a third electrical contact point, the system comprising: a contactor for electrically connecting the device under test to the test circuit board, the contactor including: means for electrically bypassing the test circuit board between the first electrical contact point and the second electrical contact point; and means for bringing the third electrical contact point in electrical communication with the test circuit board; wherein the contactor includes a device side and a circuit board side: wherein the device side faces the device under test and the circuit board side faces the test circuit board during a test of the device under test; wherein the contactor further includes dielectric material located between the circuit board side and the device side, the dielectric material including a portion located between the means for electrically bypassing the test circuit board and the means for bringing the third electrical contact point in electrical communication with the test circuit board.
