Patent abstract
A method for soaking a device in an automated testing system, includes setting a temperature control device to a first temperature, exposing the device to the temperature control device, and driving the temperature control device to a second temperature. The temperature transition rate from the first temperature to the second temperature is derived from a first natural decay rate. The first natural decay rate is based on a first-order thermal response of the device when the device is suspended in free air. The second temperature of the temperature control device is relative to a set point temperature so that when the device is socketed for testing, the temperature of the device settles at the set point temperature.
