1. An apparatus for testing integrated circuits of devices, comprising:
at least one frame;
a holder for a device, secured to the frame;
a contactor support structure held by the frame;
a plurality of terminals, held by the contactor support structure, for contacting respective contacts of a device;
at least first and second interfaces, on the contactor support structure, each having at least one row of contacts for contacting a respective terminal of a connector, the rows of the contacts of the interfaces being at an angle between 0° and 180° relative to one another; and
a plurality of conductors, held by the contactor support structure, connecting the contacts of the interfaces and the terminals on the contactor support structure to one another, the holder and contactor support structure being movable relative to one another so that each one of the terminals releasably makes contact with a respective contact of the device;
a power source;
a power electrical path connecting the power source to a power terminal of the terminals held by the support structure;
a signal source; and
a plurality of signal electrical paths, each connecting the signal source to a respective signal terminal of the terminals held by the support structure.
