| 20090237097 | TEST INTERCONNECT - According to an example embodiment, a contact cell includes a first element that is flexible and electrically conductive, and that is structured to have at least one bend along an entire length of the first element. The contact cell further includes a second element that is flexible and electrically conductive, and that is structured to have at least one bend along an entire length of the second element. The contact cell further includes a tie that is electrically non-conductive, and that is affixed to the first element and affixed to the second element such that the first element and second element are physically and electrically separated from each other. | 09-24-2009 |

| 20140370725 | ADAPTER APPARATUS WITH DEFLECTABLE ELEMENT SOCKET CONTACTS - An adapter apparatus includes a substrate having a plurality of openings defined therethrough. Further, a deflectable element socket contact is provided in each of the openings. When a conductive male pin is positioned in contact between first and second deflectable elements of the deflectable element socket contact, at least a portion of the first and second deflectable elements are caused to deflect within first and second deflection regions, respectively, of the defined opening. | 12-18-2014 |
| 20140370727 | ADAPTER APPARATUS WITH SUSPENDED CONDUCTIVE ELASTOMER INTERCONNECT - An adapter apparatus for receiving a packaged device having a plurality of contact elements disposed on a surface thereof may include a conductive elastomer interconnect. The conductive elastomer interconnect may include a carrier having a plurality of openings defined therethrough from a first side to a second side thereof (e.g., the plurality of openings being arranged to align with the plurality of contact elements of the packaged device) and conductive elastomer suspended in each of the plurality of openings to contact a contact element of a plurality of contact elements of a packaged device when positioned adjacent the second side of the carrier. Further, the adapter apparatus may include one or more adapter wall members used with the conductive elastomer interconnect to define a socket cavity adapted to receive the packaged device. | 12-18-2014 |

| 20150355234 | PACKAGED DEVICE ADAPTER WITH PARAMETER INDICATION - An adapter apparatus and method includes using an adapter body defining a socket cavity configured to receive a packaged device and a socket lid assembly configured to apply a force upon a packaged device received in the socket cavity of the adapter body. A measurement apparatus associated with the socket lid assembly may include a measurement element (e.g., temperature sensing element, compressible element, etc.) that is configured to contact a packaged device received in the socket cavity when the socket lid assembly closes the socket cavity and applies a force upon the packaged device (e.g., a measurement signal is generated with use of the measurement element that is configured to contact the packaged device). An indicator may be configured to display a parameter based on the measurement signal (e.g., a count, a temperature, etc.). | 12-10-2015 |
