Abstract :
In this paper we present a cryogenic test socket used for the quick device measurement at liquid Helium temperature. The chip under test could be easily installed inside the socket with the help of a clamp cover. Large amount of pins with 0.3mm diameter and 2.4mm length are utilized for electric contact inside the socket. Contact resistances as low as 0.2ohm are realized in a temperature range from 4.2K to about 300K. The socket can work in the frequency range from DC to several GHz.
