MicroControl

Harold Hamilton founded Micro Control Company in 1972 as a manufacturer of test equipment for the electronics industry. The microprocessor-controlled test system produced in 1973 was the first in the industry. Today, the tradition continues with Micro Control Company’s high-power burn-in and test systems which are being shipped to customers throughout the world.

Along with high-power burn-in systems for logic and memory applications, Micro Control Company designs and builds burn-in boards and other burn-in accessories for use during reliability or production burn-in applications.

 


HPB-4B


High-Power devices have become an industry standard. The HPB-4B Burn-In with Test System meets the challenges created by wide variation in heat dissipation, and the diverse burn-in needs of high-power devices. 

 

  • Individual temperature control for each device up to 600 W

  • Test devices at a maximum temperature of 150°C with a liquid-cooled heat-sink per device

  • Programmable clocks edges with 2-nanosecond edge resolution and 8 on-the-fly timing sets

  • System capacity of 14 burn-in boards (112 devices)

  • 12 vector formats per-pin per-cycle with memory testing extensions

  • 19 programmable voltage regulators provide 2060 amps of device current per burn-in board

  • High-speed clock programmable up to 800 MHz

  • 128 I/O signals per board

  • 64M vector memory, 8G scan



 

HPB-5C+


The HPB-5C+ Burn-In with Test System meets the challenges created by wide variation in heat dissipation, and the diverse burn-in needs high-power VLSI devices. The active thermal control feature provided by the HPB-5C+ ensures that the proper thermal stress is applied to each device during the burn-in cycle.

 

  • Individual temperature control for each device up to 150 W

  • Variable oven overflow control

  • Individual pattern zone per burn-in board slot

  • 32M vector memory standard, 64M optional

  • Tests devices at a temperature of up to 150°C

  • Up to 800 MHz clock rate

  • 128 digital I/O channels per burn-in board

  • System capacity of 384 devices under test with individual temperature control per device

  • 16 programmable voltage regulators with 1080 amps of device under test power per burn-in board

    • 8 high-current supplies

  • (0-4 volts at up to 125 amps each)

    • 8 low-current supplies

  • (0-6 volts at up to 10 amps each)



 

LC-2+


The LC-2+ is a sophisticated burn-in with test system which handles advanced requirements through its ability to perform dynamic burn-in with test. The LC-2+ is ideally suited for applications in engineering characterization, life testing, and production screening. The major function of the LC-2+ is to provide proper stressing temperature, voltage, and current condition to identify the functionality of the device during burn-in.

 

  • Large system capacity – 64 burn-in boards

  • Individual temperature control up to 50 watts, compatible with many BIB sizes

  • 128 or 256 digital I/O channels per burn-in board

  • 5 individually programmable power supplies (up to 400 watts and 248 amps) per burn-in board

  • Up to 150 Volt power supply outputs

  • Up to 32 pattern and power zones

  • Total flexibility up to 8M vector memory depth with scan capability per BIB



 

BURN-IN BOARDS


Micro Control Company designs and manufactures burn-in boards for use during burn-in and testing of a wide variety of electronic devices for many different types of burn-in systems. Each burn-in board is designed by engineers specializing in burn-in board design and can be formulated to meet the customer’s specific application requirements and specifications.

 

  • Dedicated and universal board designs

  • 2 to 22+ layers of polymide

  • 200°C maximum temperature

  • Gold-plated connectors and socket lands

  • All burn-in board styles available

  • BGA, LGA, PGA, QFP, TSOP, micro-BGA, SOJ, PLCC, DIP, or custom-designed sockets

  • -55°C to +150°C temperature range (up to 250°C with special board materials)

  • Loader/unloader compatibility
