    摘要: An apparatus providing improved interconnection elements and tip structures for effecting pressure connections between terminals of electronic components is described. The tip structure of the present invention has a sharpened blade oriented on the upper surface of the tip structure such that the length of the blade is substantially parallel to the direction of horizontal movement of the tip structure as the tip structure deflects across the terminal of an electronic component. In this manner, the sharpened substantially parallel oriented blade slices cleanly through any non-conductive layer(s) on the surface of the terminal and provides a reliable electrical connection between the interconnection element and the terminal of the electrical component.

    摘要: By segregating at least a substantial portion of the power connections to the space transformer component (506, 700, 800) from the signal connections thereto, constraints on the interposer component (504) may be relaxed. This is particularly advantageous in the context of probing one or more high power semiconductor components. The technique of the present invention provides for a plurality of signals (including power and ground) to be inserted into an electronic component such as a space transformer both from a one main surface thereof and an edge (periphery) thereof to an opposite main surface thereof. The space transformer includes pads (522, 706, 810) for engaging, by means of spring elements (524), component (508) to be tested and includes exposed edge pads (750, 804, 854) for engagement by a flexible cable (752) for transmission of power and ground signals to the space transformer. The system also includes an interposer (504) having resilient contacts (514, 516) for electrically interconnecting a probe card (502) to the space transformer (506).
