    摘要: An interconnect is provided for making electrical connections with a semiconductor die. The interconnect includes a substrate having integrally formed contact members, configured to electrically contact corresponding contact locations on the die. The interconnect also includes a pattern of conductors formed separately from the substrate, and then bonded to the substrate, in electrical communication with the contact members. The conductors can be mounted to a multi layered tape similar to TAB tape, or alternately bonded directly to the substrate. In addition, each conductor can include an opening aligned with a corresponding contact member, and filled with a conductive material, such as a conductive adhesive or solder. The conductive material electrically connects the contact members and conductors, and provides an expansion joint to allow expansion of the conductors without stressing the contact members. Also provided are a system for testing dice that includes the interconnect, and a system for testing wafers wherein the interconnect is formed as a probe card.

    摘要: A method and carrier for testing semiconductor dice such as bare dice or chip scale packages are provided. The carrier includes a base for retaining a single die, an interconnect for establishing temporary electrical communication with the die, and a force applying mechanism for biasing the die and interconnect together. In an illustrative embodiment the base includes conductors arranged in a universal pattern adapted to electrically connect to different sized interconnects. Interconnects are thus interchangeable on a base for testing different types of dice using the same base. The conductors on the base can be formed on a planar active surface of the base or on a stepped active surface having different sized cavities for mounting different sized interconnects. In an alternate embodiment the carrier includes an interposer. In a first interposer embodiment, the interposer connects directly to external test circuitry and can be changed to accommodate different sized interconnects. In a go second interposer embodiment, the interposer connects to conductors on the base and adapts the base for use with different sized interconnects.
