    摘要: A connecting device for inspection includes a probe head configured to hold electric contacts and optical contacts such that tip ends of the respective contacts are exposed on a lower surface of the probe head while proximal ends of the electric contacts are exposed on an upper surface of the probe head and the optical contacts are fixed to the probe head, and a transformer including connecting wires provided therein such that tip ends on one side of the connecting wires electrically connected to the proximal ends of the electric contacts exposed on the upper surface of the probe head are arranged in a lower surface of the transformer while the optical contacts slidably penetrate the transformer. A positional relationship between the tip end of the respective electric contacts and the tip end of the respective optical contacts on the lower surface of the probe head corresponds to a positional relationship between an electrical signal terminal and an optical signal terminal of a semiconductor device. The optical contacts continuously penetrate the probe head and the transformer.
