Thermonics T-2600BV Precision Temperature
Forcing System (PTFS) is typically used for hot and
cold testing of semiconductor, hybrid and other small
components. The unit provides an economical, low-
cost alternative to systems that use mechanical refrig-
eration or LN
2
as the cooling mechanism. The tem-
perature range is -30C to 225C.
The unit is compact and portable. The smaller size
enables its use in applications where traditional tem-
perature forcing systems may be impractical due to
weight and size constraints or the low volume nature
of the application. The system weighs 50 lb. (22 kg.).
Vortex Technology provides the cold air source via
the vortex thermal head, which adapts the PTFS to
the device under test. This unique mechanism for
delivering temperature-controlled air is very reliable
and safe with the added benefit of not using CFC s.
Silicon rubber thermal caps provide an inner chamber
that enhances fast and accurate temperature control.
Integrated Vortex Thermal Head and Arm
provides easy positioning and precise placement of
the vortex thermal head over the device under test.
Various physical setups, such as direct testing of a
socketed device on an ATE system, can be easily
accommodated. The head may be raised or lowered
by pressing a button on its side, stepping on an
optional foot switch, or sending a remote command
over the IEEE-488 or RS-232C interface.
Operator Interface elements are well placed and
easy to access on the front control panel. The user
interface contains a eighty character alphanumeric
display and a data-entry keypad. Menu-driven
firmware provides flexibility in programming the sys-
tem for specific applications. Programmable preset
keys enable the operator to store and recall common-
ly used application parameters, which can be invoked
at the touch of a button. All setup parameters are
stored in non-volatile memory.
