摘要:
In the highly accurate thin film probe sheet which is used for the contact to electrode pads disposed in high density with narrow pitches resulting from the increase in integration degree of semiconductor chips and for the inspection of semiconductor chips, a large spatial region in which a metal film selectively removable relative to terminal metal is formed in advance is formed in the peripheral region around minute contact terminals having sharp tips and disposed in high density with narrow pitches equivalent to those of the electrode pads. Thus, occurrence of damage in an inspection process is significantly reduced, and an inspection device simultaneously achieving the miniaturization and the durability can be provided.

摘要:
The fabrication of a semiconductor integrated circuit device involves testing using a pushing mechanism that is constructed by forming, over the upper surface of a thin film probe, a reinforcing material having a linear expansion coefficient (thermal expansion coefficient) almost equal to that of a wafer to be tested; forming a groove in the reinforcing material above a contact terminal; placing an elastomer in the groove so that a predetermined amount projects out of the groove; and disposing a pusher and another elastomer to sandwich the pusher between the elastomers. With the use of such a probe, it is possible to improve the throughput of wafer-level electrical testing of a semiconductor integrated circuit.

By using a membrane probe formed by using a manufacturing technique for semiconductor integrated circuit devices, the yield of probing collectively performed on a plurality of chips is to be enhanced. A probe card is formed by using a plurality of pushers, each pusher being formed of a POGO pin insulator, POGO pins, an FPC connector, a membrane probe HMS, an impact easing sheet, an impact easing plate, a chip condenser YRS and so on, wherein one or two POGO pins press a plurality of metal films arranged like islands. One or more cuts are made into what matches the chip to be tested in the area of the membrane probe in a direction substantially parallel to the extending direction of wiring electrically connected to probes formed in the membrane probe.
