BPM Microsystems - Socket Modules

Socket modules are the mechanical and electrical interface between the device and the programmer. The robust design of BPM's socket modules make them an excellent choice for manufacturing and design environments where high signal integrity and reliable performance are critical. Unlike other so-called "adapters" that just hold the device, the sophisticated technology of the circuitry eliminates noise, ground bounce, and overshoot; and allows for the most reliable vector testing available. In addition, active circuitry enables these modules to support multiple devices and manufacturers on most socket modules. With a choice of over 1400 socket modules, chances are that any device programming requirements are already supported. New socket module designs are continuously added and can be developed quickly to meet your programming needs.

FX4 Socket Modules

The new FX4 socket modules are specifically designed for the 7th Generation series of BPM programmers. FX4 socket modules program up to four devices simultaneously on just one programming site and enable users to achieve greater productivity and reliability. The independent socket daughter card design improves programming up-time and lowers operating cost because each socket can be replaced individually. FX4 socket modules are offered in both manual and automated models.

 

FX Socket Modules

FX socket modules offer improved programming speed over standard socket modules. Ideal for the programming of flash memory devices, FX modules are supported on both 6th and 7th Generation model programmers. Many FX modules are designed with a replaceable socket daughter card. This design  feature extends the life of the socket module and improves signal integrity to the device. Presently BPM offer  hundreds of manual and automated FX socket modules in support of a variety of packages and devices.

 

Automated Socket Modules

Automated socket modules are offered for a wide variety of package types including CSP, TSOP, DIP and MLF. They are available in FX4, FX, and Standard models and can be used on the compatible 3000 and 4000 series automated programming systems. Also offered are High Insertion Count (HIC) modules which allow customers to achieve very low operating cost per insertion.

 

Adaptive Socket Modules

The SM84UP can program over 2,600 devices through the use of templates.Templates for 20, 28, 32, 44, 52, 68, and 84-pin devices are included with each SM84UP. This adaptive approach provides for a very flexible and economic programming solution when compared to common adapters
