Plastronics Socket Partners, LP (DBA Plastronics Socket Company) has focused on solving the most challenging burn-in socket requirements since 1982 with the invention of the first open-top socket for production burn-in of LCC and PLCC packages. This allowed semiconductor manufacturers to significantly increase their throughput while decreasing costs. Through an innovate design, Plastronics’ customers were able to use automation for high volume socket loading and increase their burn-in board density by over 2x, reducing the need for costly capital equipment.
