摘要:
A probing method measures electrical characteristics of an object to be inspected by bringing a probe needle to make a contact with an electrode pad of the object, the probe needle formed to be vertically pointing the object. The method includes the steps of: mounting the object on a mounting table; aligning the object and the probe needle; thereafter, contacting the probe needle with the electrode pad by moving the mounting table upwards, and then moving the mounting table vertically upwards while moving same horizontally to rend an oxide film formed on a surface of the electrode pad, so that a tip of the probe needle is stuck into the electrode pad and the probe needle and the electrode pad to conduct with each other.

A method is for calculating a height of a chuck top. A height of the top surface of the chuck top which corresponds to an arbitrary position specified on the XY coordinate plane by a computer is calculated in each of the four quadrants based on a coordinate transformation formulas. The method includes setting, by using the computer, a conical model in which two adjacent points other than the center point of the chuck top which correspond to the specified coordinates in a predetermined quadrant of the XY coordinate plane are obtained on a circumference having the center point of the chuck top as the origin and specifying an arbitrary point in the predetermined quadrant by using the computer and calculating a height of the arbitrary point of the chuck top based on the conical model, the coordinate transformation formulas and the specified coordinates.

In a method for thermal stabilization of a probe card, a probe card is adjusted to a prescribed temperature in a short time by making a heat source directly contact the probe card and is accurately determined whether the probe card is thermally stable. A heat transfer substrate is mounted on a mounting table. The temperature of the heat transfer substrate is adjusted through the mounting table. The mounting table is raised, and a plurality of probes is brought into contact with the heat transfer substrate at a prescribed target load. The contact load between the heat transfer substrate and the probes, which changes according to the thermal changes in the probe card, is detected. The mounting table is controlled vertically through a vertical drive mechanism such that the contact load becomes the target load until the probe card is thermally stable.

A method of detecting a neurodegenerative disease includes (a) a standardization step of creating a first image by applying anatomical standardization to a brain nuclear medical image; (b) a conversion step of creating a second image by converting the pixel value of each pixel of an image based on the first image into a z score or a t value; (c) an addition step of calculating the sum of the pixel values of individual pixels in a predetermined region of interest in the second image; and (d) a detection step of obtaining the results of the detection of the neurodegenerative disease through an operation of comparison of the sum with a predetermined threshold.

With a probe-test method and a prober for examining certain electric characteristics of an object of examination, a main chuck is adapted to be driven to move in the X-, Y-, Z- and &thgr;-directions in order to bring the object into contact with the probes of the prober and then the shaft of the support of the main chuck is warped under the contact pressure applied by the probes to tilt the main chuck. The position where each of the probes contacts the corresponding one of the electrodes on the object is displaced (moved) in the X-, Y- and Z-directions by the tilt. The displacement is predicted by an operation. unit and the main chuck is moved in the X-, Y- and Z-directions to correct the displacement.

A probe card registration method is for registering a probe card for use in inspecting electrical characteristics of a target object in a probe apparatus for performing the inspecting. The probe card registration method includes detecting a height of a load sensor provided at a mounting table for mounting thereon the target object by using a first imaging unit disposed above the mounting table; contacting the load sensor with a probe by moving the load sensor by the mounting table; and stopping the movement of the load sensor when the load sensor starts to make contact with the probe. The method further includes calculating a height of a needle of the probe based on a height of the load sensor and a stop height thereof.
