Technetters, I recently started with a company and they have used a burn in system for several years that has a mother-daughter board arrangement that works inside of steady state ovens. The daughter board is attached to the mother board by a edge card connector. The mother board is connected to the power supply by another edge card connector built into the back wall of the oven. We are burning in multichip modules of varying sizes so flexibility is key to the system. The system works good, except for that the sockets are difficult to align and the operators often mis-align the sockets or have difficulty aligning them. I am looking for a more user friendly system that has flexibility and maximum part density. My question is, do any of you have a burn in system that you just love and want to share the plans on? Or, can you recommend any companies that specialize in creating these systems? Any help or ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for any information. J.
