Socket modules and socket cards are the electro-mechanical interface between the programmable semiconductor device and the programmer. The robust design is ideal for manufacturing and design environments where high signal integrity and reliable performance are critical.

The sophisticated technology of BPM Microsystems’ active circuitry delivers the cleanest waveform signals to the device by eliminating noise, ground bounce, and overshoot, which allows for the most reliable vector testing available to ensure the highest quality and overall yield.

BPM Microsystems offers a substantial number of socket modules and socket cards to support thousands of devices from over 218 semiconductor manufacturers. New socket module and socket card designs are continuously added and can be developed quickly to meet your programming needs.

Our socket modules and socket cards provide you with the best combination of programming quality and cost of ownership. Unlike our competitors, you can order as many socket solutions as you need– even if it’s only one! Contact us with regards to your specific needs.

The BPM Socket Advantage(s)

Buy what you need—No minimum for manual programmer sockets, and minimum two for an automated programming system
Good: Receptacle based sockets can be purchased and replaced (after passing their insertion rating) without the need to use any tools. Why spend extra to replace the whole socket module or Device card?
Better: High Insertion Count (HIC) and long life sockets will run hundreds of thousands of insertions without the need to replace components.
When you literally can’t send a repair tech— We support devices that are used in high-reliability mission-critical applications (such as aerospace and automotive) which requires the highest quality programming equipment. Microsemi develops chips that cost over $50K each that must meet excruciating standards for durability and longevity. Their programmer solution provider? BPM Microsystems, of course.
Demanding– We support many complex devices that use sophisticated protocols and need a large number of pin drivers and a significant amount of power.
Parallel Mode– BPM’s Automated programmer provides 240 high-speed pin drivers that enable us to support devices in parallel mode (faster) compared to serial (slow).
Highest Yield at High Speed– Our socket modules use controlled impedance connectors with gold-plated ground blades which deliver the cleanest signals while eliminating ground bounce, ensuring the highest yield even with high-speed devices
Vector Engine– Our patented Vector Engine Co-Processor on the 9th Gen programming site helps execute performance-critical portions of a device algorithm in the fastest possible manner. Side-by-side speed tests show the Vector Engine can reduce programming times by up to 700% (average is about 50%)
Future-Proof– Many of the devices and socket modules supported in previous generations are already supported on 9th Gen
Industry standard protocol support: JTAG, Serial wire debug (SWD), I2C (and SMBUs, PMBUS), SPI, UART, JEDEC, and many other custom protocols
Efficient and Flexible DDS– Device Driven Serialization (DDS) is a communication framework that allows the External Serialization Server (ESS) to communicate bi-directionally with a device-specific programming algorithm running as part of the programming application. This allows the ESS to become part of the programming algorithm and extends the functionality of typical serialization techniques and offers high flexibility in supporting sophisticated security devices.
Made in the USA– Our in-house manufacturing and assembly (right here in Houston) gives us better control in achieving high-quality products and gives us the flexibly to expedite production to meet customer schedules and special requirements
59K and growing– We supported around 59,000+ devices in all our programmers and we continue to support and release more every day, including chips that only we (currently) can handle
