摘要:
The multi-point probe comprises a supporting body defining a first surface, a first multitude of conductive probe arms each of the probe arms defining a proximal end and a distal end being positioned in co-planar relationship with the first surface of the supporting body. The probe arms are connected to the supporting body at the proximal ends thereof and have the distal ends freely extending from the supporting body, giving individually flexible motion to the first multitude of probe arms. The probe arms originate from a process of producing the probe arms on a wafer body in facial contact with the wafer body and removal of a part of the wafer body providing the supporting body and providing the probe arms freely extending therefrom. The multi-point probe further comprises a third multitude of tip elements extending from the distal end of the first multitude of probe arms. The tip elements originate from a process of metallization of electron beam depositions on the probe arms at the distal ends thereof.
摘要:
A multi-point electrical probe for testing location-specific electrical properties on circuit boards. Four generally parallel, electrically conducting probe arms are produced preferably by wafer-based techniques, although any even number of probe arms between two and 64 may be used. The precision of wafer-based manufacturing techniques permits miniaturization beyond that which is conventionally obtained by assembling discrete components. The probe arms are generally flexible, and may be shaped suitably to accommodate a particular circuit geometry. The probe and/or the sample under test may be precisely located by suitable translation and/or rotation stages, which may optionally be placed under computer control. A suitable wiring diagram is provided, and preferable manufacturing techniques are discussed. In addition, the conducting probe arms benefit from active guarding, which reduces leakage resistance and increases the measuring accuracy of the probe, by the inclusion of electrically-isolated conducting regions located between the probe arms.

An electrical feedback detection system for detecting electrical contact between a multi-point probe and an electrically conducting material test sample surface. The electrical feedback detection system comprises an electrical detector unit connected to a multitude of electrodes in the multi-point probe, and optionally directly to the test sample surface. The detector unit provides an electrical signal to a multi-point testing apparatus, which can be used to determine if the multi-point probe is in electrical contact with the test sample surface. The detector unit comprises an electrical generator means for generating an electrical signal that is driven through a first multitude of electrodes of the multi-point probe, and a second multitude of switched impedance detection elements. The electrical potential across the impedance detection elements determines the electrical contact to the test sample surface.
