In measurements such as those involving image sensors, it is essential to incorporate light; however, in a typical socket structure, the presence of a pressurized LID can create a situation where light has difficulty entering. To address this issue, PCR has developed a LID LESS socket that distorts the contactor by attracting the package from the backside in a vacuum, allowing for conduction. The absence of a pressurized LID enables free light intake, eliminating constraints in socket design. Additionally, the lack of a LID simplifies and reduces the cost of the socket, making it feasible for cost reduction efforts beyond just image sensor measurement applications. However, since the pressure is determined by atmospheric pressure, there may be cases that cannot be accommodated depending on the size and pin count of the semiconductor package.
