The 3359 Universal Contact Block for the Aseco S170D handler is said to work with all TSOP173s from 14 to 28 leads. It consists of two separate sides, each with its own precision-alignment features and mounting hardware. The design allows the handler`s plunging mechanism to travel below the surface of the PCB to permit full deflection of the microstrip contacts. This product can be coupled with an alignment frame and lid to form a complete test socket for manual usage. It is designed specifically for the DUT.
