Test Socket Business
We design, manufacture and sell IC sockets, electronic components, and manufacturing and inspection equipment for electronic components.
Our strength lies in building our core product, IC test sockets used in post-packaging inspection and chip-periphery inspection processes, as custom sockets tailored to each customer’s requirements.
We also design and manufacture inspection equipment and transmission boards, helping you establish an accurate socket design and production system that fits your schedule.
Where SDK Can Help in Your Process
From the research and development stage through prototype evaluation, failure analysis, reliability evaluation, the transition to mass production and stable production, we provide the mechanisms, functions and performance each process requires, working closely with you to deliver products that satisfy you.
Our Technologies
A key feature of SDK is the wide range of devices we support. We handle everything from sockets for each device category to RF circuit boards (high-speed digital boards and analog high-frequency signal boards).
At the core of our technology is our ability to design test sockets for the many different shapes that vary with each end product.
Not only single ICs but also modules with extremely complex shapes demand very high contact accuracy and delicate design that does not damage the device. SDK’s technical advantage lies in specializing in socket design for such challenging devices, and on this basis we have established a design and delivery system that keeps pace with your schedule from development to mass production.

02
Printed Circuit Board Business
From board design through board fabrication, component procurement and component mounting, we provide a one-stop service from a single prototype to mass production.
We have an extensive track record in board fabrication and component mounting.
We flexibly accommodate requests for only the processes you need, as well as upstream and downstream processes such as circuit design. Please feel free to contact us.
Technical Strengths
Our technical strengths are an integrated design capability that looks ahead from the design stage to fabrication and mounting, and a system that lets us select the optimal fabrication and mounting partners for each project.
In board design, we consider not only the connections shown in the schematic but also the signal flow and the purpose of the circuit, designing with board fabrication and component mounting in mind. By taking fabrication and mounting conditions into account from the design stage, we help reduce rework during prototyping and trouble when moving to mass production.
For board fabrication and component mounting, we work with multiple partner companies. We select the optimal fabrication and mounting partner for each project according to board specifications, required quality, quantity and application.
Scope of Services
From the research and development stage through prototype evaluation, failure analysis, reliability evaluation, the transition to mass production and stable production, we provide the mechanisms, functions and performance each process requires, working closely with you to deliver products that satisfy you.
Board Design
- Single-sided / double-sided / multilayer boards (up to 32 layers)
- Build-up boards
- Rigid-flex boards
- Impedance-controlled design
- High-speed transmission design (signal delay and crosstalk countermeasures)
- Design for various circuits, including high-frequency, power supply and digital circuits
Board Fabrication
- Single-sided / double-sided / multilayer boards (up to 32 layers)
- Board fabrication using a variety of board materials to suit the application
- ・FR-4 / high-heat-resistance FR-4
- ・Low-dielectric-constant and low-dissipation-factor materials (non-PTFE, for high-speed / high-frequency applications)
- ・PTFE (Teflon) materials / ceramic substrates / metal-base substrates
- Hybrid boards combining different materials (e.g., FR-4 + high-frequency materials)
- Thermal management boards, such as copper-base boards
- Resin-filled through-hole (pad-on-via) boards
- Build-up boards
- Rigid-flex boards
Component Mounting
- RoHS compliant
-
Component mounting using eutectic (leaded) solder
*Handled in a work area separate from lead-free soldering - Solder joint inspection by X-ray, with inspection images provided
- Mounting of 0402-size chip components
- Mounting of 0.35 mm-pitch CSPs
- Reflow mounting on small boards (approx. 15 × 10 mm)
- Wire bonding
- Rework and reballing
- BGA jumper modification
We also take over manufacturing operations.
For businesses planning to close, or companies looking for a new supplier because a previous contractor has closed, we also support the smooth transfer of manufacturing operations. Please feel free to contact us about taking over operations upon closure or changing suppliers.
