Zusammenfassung:A test fixture, for a heatsink, may include a probe assembly with a thermocouple probe configured to removably contact a bottom surface of a pedestal of the heatsink, and measure a surface temperature of the heatsink. The test fixture may include an insulator housing configured to house the probe assembly and a heater block, and to insulate the probe assembly from the heater block. The heater block may be provided within the insulator housing and may be configured to provide heat to the heatsink via the bottom surface of the pedestal of the heatsink. The test fixture may include a mounting block connected to the insulator housing and configured to connect to the heatsink.
