    Abstract: A method for cleaning a contact pad of a microstructure or device to be tested when it is in electric contact with a measure apparatus, being obtained by electrically contacting a flexible probe with said contact pad. The method includes mechanically engaging a free end of the flexible probe in a manner that sticks the free end in the pad; and laterally flexing, by a tip charge, the flexible probe in a manner that keeps the free end stuck in the pad, so as to locally dig into a covering layer of the pad and realize a localized crushing thereof.

    Abstract: A contact probe having a first end portion and a second end portion, a probe body extended along a longitudinal development direction between the first end portion and the second end portion is disclosed. The probe body has a pair of arms separated by a slot and extending according to the longitudinal development direction and a conductive insert extended along the longitudinal development direction, in a bending plane of the contact probe. The conductive insert is made of a first material and the contact probe is made of a second material and the first material has a lower electrical resistivity than an electrical resistivity of the second material. The conductive insert is a power transmission element of the contact probe and the arms are structural support elements of the contact probe during a deformation of the probe body.

    Abstract: A probe head for a testing apparatus integrated on a semiconductor wafer is disclosed having a first plurality of contact probes having a first transversal diameter, a second plurality of micro contact probes having a second transversal diameter, smaller than the first transversal diameter, and a flexible membrane having conductive tracks for connecting a first plurality contact probe with a corresponding second plurality micro contact probe. The second plurality contact probes are arranged between the testing apparatus and the flexible membrane, and the second plurality micro contact probes are arranged between the flexible membrane and a semiconductor wafer. The second plurality micro contact probes are configured to abut onto contact pads of a device under test integrated in the semiconductor wafer, with each first plurality contact probe being in contact with a corresponding second plurality micro contact probe through a conductive track of the flexible membrane to connect the device under test with the testing apparatus.

    Abstract: A contact probe is disclosed having a first contact end portion adapted to abut onto a contact pad of a device under test, a second contact end portion adapted to abut onto a contact pad of a PCB board of a testing apparatus, and a rod-shaped probe body extended between the first and second contact end portions according to a longitudinal direction. The contact probe also includes an opening that extends along the probe body and along at least one contact end portion, a first opening part defining a pair of arms in the probe body and a second opening part defining a pair of end sections in the contact end portion.

    Abstract: A contact probe is disclosed having a first end portion with a contact tip adapted to abut onto a contact pad of a device under test, a second end portion with a contact head adapted to abut onto a contact pad of a board of a test equipment, a probe body extended between the first and the second end portions according to a longitudinal development axis, and an elastic stopper provided in an elastic portion of the probe body arranged contiguous to the second end portion. The elastic stopper is deformable between a first working condition, in which it has a transversal diameter greater than a transversal diameter of the probe body, and a second working condition in which it has a transversal diameter corresponding to the transversal diameter of the probe body.

    Abstract: A contact element for a probe head for an electronic device test apparatus is disclosed, having a body extending along a longitudinal axis between a first and a second opposite contact end, each made of electrically conductive material. The body includes a first section which extends over a distance less than 1000 μm along the longitudinal axis starting from the first contact end towards the second contact end, a second section which extends along the longitudinal axis starting from the second contact end towards the first contact end, and a third section, interposed between the first and second sections, made of an electrically insulating material. The sections follow each other along the longitudinal axis so that the first contact end is included only in the first section, the second contact end is included only in the second section, and the third section electrically insulates the first section from the second section.
