To permit electrical testing of a semiconductor integrated circuit device having test pads disposed at narrow pitches probes in a pyramid or trapezoidal pyramid form are formed from metal films formed by stacking a rhodium film and a nickel film successively. Via through-holes are formed in a polyimide film between interconnects and the metal films, and the interconnects are electrically connected to the metal films. A plane pattern of one of the metal films equipped with one probe and through-hole is obtained by turning a plane pattern of the other metal film equipped with the other probe and through-hole through a predetermined angle.

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.

A semiconductor chip inspection apparatus largely reduces occurrence of damage due to foreign matter in an inspection process and improves durability at the same time of miniaturization is provided. As to a highly accurate thin-film probe sheet which performs: a contact to electrode pads arranged at a narrow pitch and a high density along with integration of semiconductor chip; and an inspection of semiconductor chips, by providing two layers of metal films selectively removable in a step-like shape in a periphery region of fine contact terminal having sharp tips and arranged at a high density and a narrow pitch at the same level as electrode pads, an upper periphery of the contact terminals is covered with an insulating film, and a large space region is formed.

In the connecting apparatus for inspecting the semiconductor chip, in which contact terminals are electrically connected to each of the plurality of electrode pads formed on the semiconductor chips, a part of metal projections in the shape of quadrangular pyramid which constitute the contact terminals is composed of insulator in the present invention. Therefore, the inspection of semiconductor chips performed by simultaneously transmitting high-speed signals to the plurality of minute electrode pads arranged at a narrow pitch on the semiconductor chips can be realized.

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.
